Lupo Turbo - 1999-05 - 1.2 TDI

Replacement exhaust turbocharger for Volkswagen Lupo 1.2 TDI models up to chassis number 6E1001000. Supplied complete with gasket and seal kit, this turbocharger is designed to restore original boost pressure, fuel economy and engine performance on worn or failing diesel turbo systems.

The turbocharger uses exhaust gas energy to spin a turbine wheel which compresses intake air before it enters the engine. This improves combustion efficiency and allows the lightweight 1.2 TDI engine to produce strong torque and excellent fuel economy while maintaining low emissions.

Over time, turbochargers can suffer from bearing wear, oil contamination, sticking vanes or actuator problems. Common symptoms include reduced power, excessive exhaust smoke, turbo whistle, limp mode activation or poor fuel economy.

This replacement unit is supplied with fitting gaskets and seals to help ensure a reliable installation and proper sealing during fitting.
