Diagnosing a failing turbo on a Subaru WRX before replacement
Before considering a turbocharger replacement on your Subaru WRX fitted with the 2.5 Turbo EJ255 engine, it is essential to confirm that the turbo is genuinely at fault. On this model, progressive power loss, blue smoke from the exhaust, an unusual whistling noise under acceleration, or the engine warning light coming on are all characteristic signs of turbo wear. Also check the boost pressure and for excessive play on the turbine shaft before finalising your diagnosis, as some symptoms may also stem from a cracked hose or a misadjusted wastegate actuator.
New turbo compatible with the VF52 reference for the Subaru WRX
This new turbo is compatible with the VF52 reference, designed for the 2.5 Turbo engine with engine code EJ255 as fitted to the Subaru WRX. This part provides the boost required for the correct operation of the 2457 cm³ petrol engine. Before placing an order, it is recommended that you check the reference marked on the old turbo to ensure perfect compatibility with your vehicle.
Exchange basis and warranty for this Subaru WRX turbo
This new 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 delivery and fitting of the new turbo, so that your Subaru WRX is not left off the road. The part comes with 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 EJ255 engine
On this EJ255 engine, the longevity of the turbo depends greatly on the quality and regularity of oil changes, as degraded oil or an insufficient oil level accelerates bearing wear. Before fitting, inspect the oil circuit, the inlet and return hoses, and the air intake to rule out any risk of contamination. Also check the condition of the air filter and the intercooler, and drive progressively, avoiding high revs when the engine is cold. On start-up, prime the turbo with oil before starting the engine, to ensure immediate lubrication of the bearings and prevent premature wear.
