Not sure you've found the right part?
Why does the turbo on the Citroën DS3 1.6 THP fail so often?
On the Citroën DS3 fitted with the 1.6 THP engine, the turbocharger is a particularly heavily loaded component. This turbocharged petrol engine, designed to deliver a sporty character, places high thermal and mechanical stresses on the turbo shaft and bearings. Insufficient engine oil quality, oil changes that are overdue, or a clogged oil filter all accelerate bearing wear and cause excessive shaft play, leading to oil leaks into the intake or exhaust. Driving that involves repeated high-rev runs without allowing the engine to cool down before switching off, as well as a dirty air filter or intercooler, also contribute to overheating and premature turbo failure on this model.
A new turbo to restore power to your DS3
This new turbo is compatible with reference 53039880383 and is intended for the 1.6 THP petrol engines of the Citroën DS3, carrying engine codes 5FR (EP6DT) and 5FV (EP6CDT), with an engine capacity of 1598 cm3. Before ordering, it is recommended that you check the reference printed on your old turbo to confirm exact compatibility with your vehicle, as certain power variants of the 1.6 THP may use different turbos.
Exchange basis and warranty on this DS3 turbo
This new turbo is sold on an exchange basis: in accordance with our Terms and Conditions, return of the old turbo is required, but it is only collected after the new turbo has been delivered and fitted to your DS3, so your vehicle is never off the road unnecessarily.

Fitting advice for the turbo on your DS3 1.6 THP
Before fitting the new turbo, check the condition of the oil circuit, the cleanliness of the feed and return hoses, as well as the air intake and intercooler, to avoid any contamination or restriction that could immediately damage the new part. When starting up for the first time, prime the turbo with oil before the initial start to ensure correct lubrication from the very first revolutions of the shaft.
