3804159 Turbocharger Core | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for an exchange turbocharger, listed under the Inlet and Exhaust System group at 12.701 kg. It raises the refundable charge on the worn turbocharger you return and supplies nothing when ordered on its own. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering it pairs with part 3801159. At 12.701 kg it is, close enough to core 3804114 at 13.154 kg that the numbers rather than the weights should decide.

⚙️ Key Features

• Refundable core deposit, not a fitted part
• Pairs with part 3801159
• 12.701 kg
• Within half a kilo of core 3804114, so order by number

🔌 Function

Carries the refundable core charge on an exchange turbocharger; the turbocharger it covers uses exhaust energy to drive a compressor, raising the density of the air going into the cylinders.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• This is a deposit line and has nothing to fail in itself; the signs below are what normally condemns the turbocharger being exchanged
• Oil smoke from the exhaust with no leak visible outside the engine
• A siren whine or rattle following boost
• Low boost, sooty exhaust and the engine reluctant under load
• Bearing play at the shaft and rub marks in the compressor housing

🛠️ Service Notes

• The deposit is refunded when the old turbocharger is returned; ordering this line on its own supplies no part
• Return the turbocharger with its wheels and housings intact and the ports blanked, since a damaged or dismantled core can reduce or void the refund
• Change the engine oil and filter before starting on the exchange unit, so debris from the old failure is not carried through

📦 Condition

• Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
