3804245 Turbocharger Core | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for an exchange turbocharger, listed under the Inlet and Exhaust System group. It raises the refundable charge on the worn turbocharger returned at the end of the exchange and supplies nothing when ordered on its own. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering it pairs with part 3801245.

⚙️ Key Features

• Refundable core deposit, not a fitted part
• Pairs with part 3801245
• Inlet and Exhaust System group

🔌 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
• Blue smoke and oil consumption with nothing leaking outside the engine
• A whine or rattle from the turbo that rises with boost
• Boost down, black smoke under load and flat performance
• Shaft play at the compressor wheel with rub marks in the 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 oil and filter and clear the inlet system of debris before the exchange unit is run

📦 Condition

• Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
