These symptoms frequently point to excessive play within the turbocharger or abnormal oil consumption — two warning signs that should never be ignored on this turbocharged engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA new turbo designed for the Grande Punto 1.4 T-Jet\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new turbo is compatible with the VL40 reference, intended for 1.4 T-Jet 16V engines producing 155 and 180 hp (Abarth\/SuperSport versions) as fitted to the Fiat Grande Punto. Before placing an order, please check the reference number on the identification plate of your old turbo to confirm exact compatibility with your vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eExchange and warranty for your Grande Punto\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new turbo is sold on an exchange basis: return of your old turbo is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

A recent oil change using a suitable high-quality oil reduces the risk of bearing fouling. When starting up for the first time, remember to prime the turbo with oil before the initial start and let the engine idle for a few moments to ensure proper lubrication before putting it under any load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFlexible payment for your Grande Punto turbo\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePayment for your new turbo can be spread over several instalments — pay in up to 10 instalments — to help you manage your budget when carrying out this repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThis same turbo also fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/new-turbo-abarth-500-vl40\"\u003eNew Abarth 500 Turbo – Ref.
