# 3802131 Turbocharger | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta remanufactured turbocharger from the Inlet and Exhaust System group, weighing 6.83 kg and listed for one TAD-series application. The reman catalogue lists this number against TAD520GE and marks it Tier 1, with the Tier 2 build of the same engine taking 3802191 - so the emissions build is the deciding detail, not the weight: this unit, the TD520GE unit 3802130 at 6.76 kg and 3802181 at 6.88 kg all sit within 120 grams. Supplied on exchange: core deposit 3805131 is charged alongside it and refunded once the old unit is returned.
