Reconditioned Volvo XC40 2.0 D3 Turbo – Ref. 36011553

Signs of a failing turbo on your Volvo XC40 2.0 D3

On the Volvo XC40 fitted with the 2.0 D3 150 engine, a turbo nearing the end of its life typically makes itself known through a gradual loss of power under acceleration, an unusual whistling noise that worsens as the revs rise, blue or black exhaust smoke, or an engine warning light accompanied by the vehicle entering limp mode. On this 1969 cm³ diesel engine, these symptoms generally point to excessive play within the turbo, an oil leak into the intake or exhaust, or a fault with the variable-geometry compressor.

A reconditioned turbo compatible with reference 36011553

This reconditioned turbo is offered as a compatible replacement part for reference 36011553, intended for the Volvo XC40 fitted with the 2.0 D3 engine. Before placing an order, it is recommended that you verify this reference directly on the old turbo removed from the vehicle, as several turbo variants may have been fitted to this engine depending on the trim level or year of production.

Engine compatibility

This reconditioned turbo is suitable for Volvo XC40 models powered by the 2.0 D3 150 diesel engine, with engine codes D4204T9 and D4204T16. It is essential to confirm the exact match from the markings on the original part before ordering.

Exchange basis and warranty

This reconditioned 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 reconditioned turbo has been delivered and fitted to the vehicle, so as to minimise any time off the road. This turbo is covered by a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional.

Advice before and during fitting

Before fitting the turbo to the 2.0 D3, it is advisable to check the condition of the oil circuit (pump, strainer and hoses), to ensure there are no blockages in the oil feed and return lines, and to inspect the intercooler and intake hoses for cracks or oil deposits. The air filter must be clean and the oil change carried out using a suitable high-quality oil, as insufficient lubrication or a contaminated circuit are among the leading causes of premature failure on this type of engine. When starting the vehicle for the first time, priming the turbo with oil before the initial start-up will prevent the bearings from running dry. Avoiding sudden high-rev driving during the first few kilometres will also help extend the life of the part.
