New Mitsubishi L200 Turbo – Ref. VF420088

Signs of a worn turbo on your Mitsubishi L200

On the Mitsubishi L200 fitted with the 2.5 TD or 2.5 DI-D engine, a turbo nearing the end of its life typically shows itself through a noticeable loss of power under acceleration, an unusual whistling noise from the engine bay, persistent blue or black exhaust smoke, and higher-than-normal engine oil consumption. An engine warning light combined with a sluggish throttle response – particularly under load or on hills – should also alert any L200 driver who uses their vehicle for work or towing.

Tips for a successful fitment on your L200

Turbo failure on a 4D56 or 4D5CDI engine is very often caused by inadequate lubrication – whether due to poor-quality oil, missed oil changes, or a blocked oil filter. Be sure to also check the condition of the air filter and intercooler, as a leak or blockage in either can accelerate wear on the new turbo. Before fitting, it is essential to inspect the oil circuit, hoses and air intake, then prime the turbo with oil on start-up to ensure the bearings are lubricated immediately.
