Turbocharger Assembly

This complete turbocharger assembly is a crucial component that uses exhaust gas to pressurize the intake air. By increasing the volume of air entering the engine, it allows for more fuel to be added, resulting in enhanced power output and improved efficiency. Turbochargers are typically cooled by the engine's coolant and lubricated by its oil, featuring distinct feed and return lines. Over time, turbochargers can wear out, leading to symptoms such as oil leaks, smoking exhaust, low boost pressure, high oil consumption, and play in the turbine shaft due to worn bearings. If you suspect your turbocharger is failing, it is advised to replace it promptly to prevent further engine damage. This genuine VW turbocharger is specifically designed for the Volkswagen Tiguan, with fitment notes indicating it is compatible with models from 05/14/2019 and 01/14/2020, and includes the exhaust manifold. The part number is 06K145061C, with supersessions including 06K-145-061-C, 06K145061, and 6K145061C.
