FAQs

What vehicles is this turbocharger compatible with?

This turbocharger (TB11657595351) is designed for specific Peugeot RCZ and 308 models, and Mini Cooper S models (R55, R56, R57) equipped with the 1.6L THP (EP6DTX) engine. Please verify your specific vehicle and engine details against the part number.

Do I need to replace my oil when installing this turbocharger?

Yes, it is highly recommended to flush the engine oil system, replace the oil filter, and use fresh, high-quality engine oil during installation to ensure proper lubrication and prevent damage to the new turbocharger.

What are the signs of a failing turbocharger?

Common signs include a noticeable loss of engine power, unusual noises (whining, grinding), excessive exhaust smoke (blue or white), and rapid oil consumption.

Can I install this turbocharger myself?

While possible for experienced DIY mechanics with the right tools, turbocharger installation is complex. Professional installation by a qualified mechanic is strongly recommended to ensure correct fitment, avoid damage, and guarantee optimal performance.

How does a turbocharger improve performance?

A turbocharger uses exhaust gases to spin a turbine, which in turn drives a compressor. The compressor forces more air into the engine's cylinders, allowing for more fuel to be burned and thus generating more power.

What is the recommended maintenance for this turbocharger?

Regular oil changes with high-quality oil, keeping the air filter clean, and allowing the engine to cool down after hard driving are essential maintenance practices for turbocharger longevity.

Will this turbocharger increase my fuel economy?

When functioning correctly, a turbocharger helps the engine operate more efficiently, which can lead to improved fuel economy, especially under normal driving conditions. However, aggressive driving to utilize the increased power may negate this benefit.

Troubleshooting

Turbocharger making whining or grinding noises

This could indicate bearing failure or foreign object damage. Inspect intake and exhaust paths for debris. Professional inspection and likely replacement of the turbocharger is recommended.

Significant loss of engine power or 'limp mode'

Check for boost leaks in hoses and intercooler, clogged air filter, or exhaust restrictions. Ensure wastegate is functioning correctly. If these are ruled out, the turbocharger itself may be failing internally.

Excessive smoke from the exhaust (blue/white smoke)

This often indicates oil is leaking into the combustion chamber, usually due to worn turbocharger seals. Have the turbocharger inspected for internal wear.

Engine oil level dropping rapidly

The turbocharger may be consuming oil. Check the oil feed and drain lines for leaks or blockages. Internal seal failure within the turbocharger is a common cause.

  • Designed for specific Peugeot and Mini Cooper models, ensuring compatibility.
  • High-quality materials contribute to longevity.
  • Can help improve overall engine performance when functioning correctly.
  • Direct replacement reduces installation complexity compared to universal kits.

Cons

  • Requires professional installation for optimal performance and to avoid damage.
  • Potential for increased oil consumption if not installed or maintained correctly.
  • May require other supporting modifications or checks (e.g., exhaust, intercooler) for best results.
  • Performance gains are dependent on the overall health of the engine.
  • Not a universal fit; limited to specific engine and vehicle types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This turbocharger is specifically designed for the following vehicles and engines:

  • Peugeot: RCZ and 308 models with 1.6 THP 200 (147KW/200HP) engines, engine code 5FU (EP6DTX), manufactured between 2011-2015.
  • Mini Cooper S: Models R55, R56, and R57 equipped with the 1.6 Turbo (EP6, EP6DTS) engine, producing 175HP (120 KW).

Always verify your vehicle's engine code and original turbocharger part numbers against the provided list (e.g., 11657595351, 756542401, etc.) before purchase.

Setup:

Installation of a turbocharger is a complex procedure that requires specialized tools and knowledge. It is strongly recommended to have this component installed by a qualified mechanic experienced with turbocharger systems.

Key installation steps typically involve:

  1. Engine Preparation: Ensure the engine oil is clean and at the correct level. Flush the oil system and replace the oil filter.
  2. Removal of Old Unit: Carefully disconnect exhaust, oil feed, oil drain, and coolant lines (if applicable) from the old turbocharger.
  3. Installation of New Unit: Mount the new turbocharger, ensuring all gaskets are properly seated. Reconnect all lines securely.
  4. Priming and Initial Run: Prime the turbocharger with clean engine oil before starting the engine. Allow the engine to idle for several minutes to ensure proper oil flow and lubrication before applying significant throttle.

Care:

Proper maintenance is crucial for the longevity of any turbocharger:

  • Regular Oil Changes: Adhere to the manufacturer's recommended oil change intervals using high-quality synthetic oil.
  • Clean Air Intake: Ensure the air filter is clean and the intake system is free from obstructions.
  • Allow Cool-Down: After driving, especially at high speeds or under load, allow the engine to idle for a minute or two to let the turbocharger cool down gradually, preventing oil coking.
  • Avoid Hard Acceleration from Cold Start: Allow the engine to reach operating temperature before demanding full power from the turbo.
