Diagnosing the turbo on your Subaru WRX before any replacement
Before replacing the turbocharger on your Subaru WRX, it is essential to confirm that the fault does indeed lie with this component. A thorough diagnosis starts with checking the boost pressure, visually inspecting the turbine for abnormal axial or radial play, and examining the exhaust smoke (blue for an oil leak, black for excess fuel). A sharp whistling noise under acceleration, a noticeable loss of power at the top of the rev range, or an engine warning light accompanied by a boost pressure fault code are all characteristic signs of turbo failure on the EJ205 block fitted to the WRX.
Compatibility of the new turbo for the Subaru WRX
This new turbo is compatible with reference 49377-04372, dedicated to the 2.0 Turbo (EJ205) petrol engine of the Subaru WRX. This block, force-fed by a fixed-geometry turbocharger, is well regarded for its performance but remains sensitive to lubrication quality. Before placing an order, please check the reference printed on your old turbo to ensure perfect compatibility with your vehicle.
Exchange basis and warranty for this Subaru WRX turbo
This turbo is sold on an exchange basis: return of the 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 that your Subaru WRX is not left off the road unnecessarily. The new turbo is covered by a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a professional. Payment can be spread over several instalments, in up to 10 instalments.
Fitting advice for the turbo on your WRX
On the EJ205 engine, premature turbo failure is often the result of insufficient lubrication caused by poor-quality oil, missed oil changes, or a clogged air filter allowing contaminants through. Before fitting, check the condition of the oil circuit, the cleanliness of the intake hoses and intercooler, and ensure there are no air leaks. On first start-up, prime the oil circuit by running the engine at idle for a few moments before any load is applied, to ensure immediate lubrication of the turbine shaft.
- Check the oil circuit and its cleanliness
- Inspect the hoses and air intake before fitting
- Prime the turbo with oil before the first start-up
- Check the intercooler and air filter regularly
