Identifying the right turbo for your Volkswagen Crafter
Before ordering a turbo for your Volkswagen Crafter, it is essential to check the reference printed on the label of your original turbo, as several variants may have been fitted to this vehicle depending on the version and market. This new turbo is compatible with reference 49377-07515, a reference found on certain Crafter models fitted with a 2.5 TDI diesel engine.
Engine versions covered on the Crafter
On the Volkswagen Crafter, this reference applies to the 2.5 TDI engines producing 136 hp or 163 hp, associated with engine codes BJL, CECA or CECB. These diesel units were widely fitted to Crafter panel vans and chassis cabs used for intensive professional work, often under heavy load and on long runs. Before placing any order, always compare the number stamped on the casing of your old turbo with the references listed on this page to ensure a perfect match.
Warranty and delivery for the Crafter turbo
This new turbo is sold as a straightforward purchase: there is no old unit to return, and your old turbo stays with you. A single delivery is made — your new turbo. The part is covered by a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a professional. Payment for your order can be spread over up to 10 instalments.
Why might a Crafter turbo fail?
On the 2.5 TDI engines fitted to the Crafter, premature turbo failure is most commonly caused by a lack of lubrication due to poor-quality engine oil, oil changes not carried out on time, or a clogged air filter that leads to fouling of the variable geometry mechanism. A leaking intercooler or a pattern of sudden pressure spikes — common on a heavily loaded van — also accelerates wear on the turbo bearings.
Advice before and during fitting
- Check the oil circuit and clean or replace the oil feed and return hoses.
- Check the condition of the air intake and filter before reassembly.
- Prime the turbo with oil before the first start to avoid any dry running.
