New SEAT Leon Turbo – Ref. 713673-5007S

A new turbo built for everyday use in the SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI

The first-generation SEAT Leon has long served as a versatile compact car, used equally for urban commutes and long motorway journeys. This kind of mixed use — with frequent high-revving and extended periods of motorway load — puts considerable strain on the turbocharger, particularly on the 1.9 TDI 110 and 115 hp engines. A turbo that runs short of lubrication or is exposed to dirty oil will wear its bearings and shaft prematurely, which typically shows up as an unusual whistling noise or a gradual loss of power over the kilometres.

Compatibility with the SEAT Leon and its 1.9 TDI engines

This new turbo is compatible with reference 713673-5007S, designed for the 1.9 TDI 110 and 1.9 TDI 115 engines in the SEAT Leon, associated with engine codes AJM, AUY and BVK. Before placing an order, we recommend checking the reference number on your old turbo as well as the engine code on the vehicle's identification plate, to confirm an exact match with your Leon.

Exchange basis and warranty for your Leon

This new turbo is sold on an exchange basis: return of the old turbo is required in accordance with our Terms and Conditions, but it is only collected after the new turbo has been delivered and fitted, so your Leon is never left off the road. The part is covered by a 12-month parts warranty, provided fitting is carried out by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over multiple instalments, in up to 10 instalments.

Fitting advice for the Leon's 1.9 TDI

Before fitting the turbo, check the condition of the oil circuit, the cleanliness of the hoses and that there are no air intake leaks, as carbon deposits or a cracked hose can cause rapid failure again on this engine. Also check the condition of the air filter and intercooler — two components that directly affect intake pressure on the 1.9 TDI. When starting up, prime the turbo with oil before the first start, then drive gently to allow the engine to reach operating temperature before any sustained motorway use.
