Find the right TD5 turbo parts
TD5 turbo work can involve replacing the complete turbocharger, renewing damaged or leaking oil pipework, replacing individual feed fittings or moving to a VNT performance setup. Identify the job first, then compare the vehicle fitment and supplied parts.
| Job | Best place to start | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Standard turbo replacement | Garrett or Nissens TD5 turbocharger | Check the brand, replacement part number and whether fitting parts are required separately |
| Oil feed and drain renewal | Complete stainless turbo oil feed and drain pipe kit | Check whether both oil pipes and the associated fittings are being replaced |
| Oil drain pipe replacement | Stainless turbo oil drain pipe | Confirm that only the drain or return pipe needs replacing |
| Oil feed banjo bolt replacement | Stainless turbo oil feed banjo bolt | Check whether new sealing washers or additional fittings are required |
| VNT turbo conversion | Alive GTB450 Defender TD5 turbo kit | Defender TD5 only; an ECU remap is required and some 10P vehicles may need an NNN-type ECU |
