# 3801558 Turbocharger Exch | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta remanufactured turbocharger, weighing 19.504 kg. The reman catalogue lists it as the turbocharger for the TAD1241GE and TAD1242GE, in both the earlier and later serial groups, alongside long block 3801101, cylinder head 3803667, unit injector 3801293 and circulation pump 3803909 for the same engines. It supersedes part number 3802136, catalogued under the same name. Reman units are dismantled to component level, rebuilt to the current bill of material with new genuine parts in place of the wear items, tested for performance and repainted before despatch. Supplied on an exchange basis: core deposit 3804558 is charged alongside it and refunded once the old unit is returned, so both numbers appear on the order.
