Why does the Defender 2.2 TDCi Puma turbo fail?
On the Land Rover Defender fitted with the 2.2 TDCi Puma engine, the turbo is put under particular strain by off-road use and the frequent towing loads typical of this utility vehicle. Insufficient lubrication, incorrect or overdue engine oil changes, or an air filter clogged with trail dust all accelerate wear on the bearings and the turbo itself. Hard acceleration without allowing the engine to cool down before switching off also promotes overheating of the turbo assembly and premature failure of the central bearing.
Compatibility of the new turbo for the Defender 2.2 TDCi
This new turbo is compatible with reference 788479-5006S and fits the Land Rover Defender with the 2.2 TDCi (Puma) diesel engine of 2198 cm³, engine code DT224. Before ordering, we recommend checking the reference number on your old turbo or on the vehicle's engine plate to confirm exact compatibility with your Defender.

Exchange and warranty on this Defender 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 the new turbo has been delivered and fitted to the Defender, so the vehicle is never left off the road. A 12-month parts warranty applies, provided fitting is carried out by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over up to 10 instalments.
Fitting advice for the Defender 2.2 TDCi
Before fitting this new turbo to the Defender, it is advisable to check the condition of the oil circuit (feed and return lines), ensure there are no blockages or leaks in the hoses, and clean the air intake and intercooler to prevent premature fouling of the new turbo. When starting up for the first time, pre-priming the turbo with oil before the initial start ensures correct lubrication from the very first engine revolutions and helps preserve the life of the turbo assembly on this vehicle used in demanding conditions.
