Disconnect the negative battery cables and drain coolant. Remove air filter housing, hoses, tubes, wiring, and oil supply line. Remove coolant lines and engine-driven fan/shroud (2012+). Raise vehicle and support on jackstands. Remove right inner fender and engine mount. Remove exhaust bracket and V-band clamp. Lower vehicle and remove Grid Heater relay. Remove turbocharger mounting nuts and turbocharger. Clean turbocharger and exhaust manifold. Bolt turbocharger onto exhaust manifold with new gasket. Reinstall oil drain line and coolant lines. Prime center bearing with oil and install supply line. Reverse of removal for remainder of installation. Tighten turbocharger-to-exhaust manifold nuts.

Turbocharged models also have an intercooler, which lowers the temperature of the compressed air intake charge, resulting in increased combustion efficiency, power, and reduced emissions.

The amount of boost is controlled by a wastegate, which is operated by a spring-loaded actuator assembly.

Disconnect the negative battery cables from both batteries.

The turbocharger is lubricated by pressurized, cooled, and filtered engine oil. It is delivered through a supply line and lubricates the shaft and bearings in the turbocharger's bearing housing. A return pipe routes the oil back to the crankcase.

Clean the turbocharger and exhaust manifold sealing surfaces.

Clean the turbocharger and exhaust manifold sealing surfaces.

A turbocharger is a device that improves engine power, reduces exhaust smoke density, enhances fuel economy, decreases engine noise, and mitigates the effects of lower density air at higher altitudes. It achieves this by using an exhaust gas-driven turbine to pressurize the air entering the combustion chambers.
