# 3801727 Turbocharger Reman | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta remanufactured turbocharger for the D8A1-A MP, D8A2-A MP, D8A3-A MP and D8A4-A MP, weighing 27.783 kg. Its nearest neighbour here is 3801486 at 27.011 kg, which covers the D11A engines - 772 grams apart, so the engine series is what separates them rather than the mass. Volvo Penta reman turbochargers are rebuilt to the current bill of material with wear parts replaced by new genuine parts, then tested to verify performance and painted before despatch. Supplied on exchange, so a core fee is added to the invoice and refunded once the worn unit is returned.
