New Fiat Ducato 2.3 Multijet Turbo – Ref. 49135-00700

Diagnosing a failing turbo on a Fiat Ducato 2.3 Multijet before replacement

Before considering replacing the turbocharger on your Fiat Ducato, a thorough diagnosis is essential. A van like the Ducato, often used intensively for deliveries, site work or long-distance runs, puts its turbo under considerable strain. Before concluding that the turbo has failed, check for air leaks on the hoses, inspect the air filter, ensure the intercooler is clean, and check the engine oil level and quality. Checking the lubrication circuit (oil pressure, feed and return hoses) will help rule out an underlying cause before ordering a new part.

Fitting advice for the Ducato 2.3 Multijet turbo

Before installing the new turbo, check the condition of the oil circuit (feed and return hoses), ensure the air intake is clean and that the intercooler is free from contamination. Prime the turbo with oil before the first start-up to ensure immediate lubrication of the bearings. Remember also to replace the air filter and carry out an oil change using a suitable high-quality oil, as these are common causes of premature turbo failure on this type of heavily used Diesel engine.
