Exchange basis and warranty on this new turbo
This new turbo for the Abarth 500 is sold on an exchange basis: return of the old turbo is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions. The return is only collected after delivery and fitting of the new turbo, so your vehicle is never left off the road.

Common causes of turbo failure on the Abarth 500 1.4 T-Jet
On this turbocharged, high-performance engine, turbo failure most commonly results from a lubrication fault caused by incorrect oil, excessively long oil change intervals, or a clogged air filter. A damaged intercooler or cracked hoses can also cause a loss of pressure and accelerate turbo wear, as can driving that places heavy demands on the engine before it has reached operating temperature.
Advice before fitting the turbo to your Abarth 500
Before installation, check the oil circuit, the condition of the hoses and the air intake to prevent any contamination of the new turbo. When starting the engine for the first time, priming the oil supply is essential to ensure immediate lubrication of the bearings and to protect the service life of the new turbo.
