A new turbo designed for the sporting and versatile use of the Forester 2.5 XT
The Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Turbo was built for dynamic driving, combining everyday use with sustained acceleration and journeys on all types of road, including under load with four-wheel drive engaged. This usage profile places considerable demands on the turbocharger, particularly during rapid rev build-up and spirited driving phases that require high and sustained boost pressure. A new turbo restores factory-level performance on this demanding model.
Compatibility with the EJ255 engine in the Forester
This new turbo is compatible with reference 49377-04502, intended for Subaru Forester models fitted with the EJ255 2457 cm³ petrol engine, specific to the 2.5 XT Turbo variant. Before placing an order, we recommend checking the reference number on your old turbo or on the engine plate of your vehicle to confirm exact compatibility with your Forester.
Exchange basis and warranty for your Forester
This new turbo is sold on an exchange basis: return of your old turbo is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions. It is only collected after the new turbo has been delivered and fitted, so your Forester is not left off the road. The part is covered by a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over multiple instalments, in up to 10 instalments.
Symptoms and causes of turbo failure on the EJ255
On the Forester XT, turbo failure often presents as a loss of power under acceleration, exhaust smoke, an unusual whistling noise, or abnormal oil consumption. The most common causes are linked to a lubrication fault, insufficient engine oil quality or missed oil changes, a clogged air filter, a faulty intercooler, or driving too hard without allowing a cooling-down period before switching off the engine.
Fitting advice for the Forester
Before installing this new turbo, carefully inspect the oil circuit, hoses and air intake to rule out any persistent cause of failure. When starting up, make sure to prime the turbo with oil before running the engine, to ensure immediate lubrication of the bearings and preserve the service life of the part on your Forester.
