⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Loss of power and black smoke under load
• Boost pressure down, or a hiss from a leaking joint
• Oil or water collecting in the cooler or charge pipework
• Coolant disappearing with no external leak
• Fins blocked or corroded, or a visible split in the core

🛠️ Service Notes

• The heavier 44.00 kg cooler 3838414 covers 4 D and MD applications, so check the engine designation before ordering - a 15 kg difference means these are not alternatives
• Pressure test the cooler and renew every gasket, seal and hose at the joints
• Clean the charge air path if the old cooler was oil-fouled
