2.0L Theta 2 Turbocharger

The Kia OE 282312GTA1 is a new, genuine turbocharger designed as a direct replacement for specific Kia and Hyundai 2.0L Theta 2 engines. This component is manufactured by Kia to ensure durability and a precise fit, undergoing rigorous quality control tests. This turbocharger is compatible with the 2015-2020 Kia/Hyundai 2.0L models, specifically listing fitment for the 2016-2020 Kia Optima, 2015-2018 Kia Sorento, and 2016-2022 Kia Sportage. Installation is estimated to take 8 hours and requires a skill level of Service Technician “B” or higher. Prior to installation, it is crucial to carefully inspect the air cleaner, air cleaner duct, and exhaust manifold for any foreign material that could damage the turbocharger upon startup. Additionally, old gaskets and material must be removed from the exhaust manifold and oil line flanges, with these surfaces inspected for cracks or erosion. The oil supply and drain lines should be checked for degradation, kinks, or restrictions.
