Removing
NOTE: The steps in this procedure may be part of the installation procedure.
1. Remove the turbocharger heat shield.
2.
Caveats:
- Do not apply force that could deform the variable geometry turbocharger drive shaft components.
- When removing the variable geometry turbocharger drive shaft, do not apply rotational force, otherwise the worm gear may be damaged.
Disconnect the connecting rod from the drive. It may be necessary to insert a suitable tool between the shaft shoulder and the actuator stem and move it from side to side.
3.
NOTE: Movement may be difficult at first due to accumulation of carbon deposits.
While pressing with your finger, move the variable geometry turbocharger drive mechanism to ensure there is sufficient travel. Move 10-20 times to ensure sufficient movement.
4.
CAUTION: Do not apply excessive force or leverage to the crank arm as this may deform the crank arm or damage the turbine mechanism.
Remove the turbocharger actuator connecting rod. Use a penetrating spray if necessary.
5.
NOTE: Very thin wet and dry paper may be required for polishing and removing corrosion.
Clean the drive and turbocharger stud surfaces.
- Apply a light penetrating lubricant to the turbocharger and actuator studs.
- Clean the surfaces of the studs.
Installation
1. Apply recommended high temperature lubricant (Land Rover part number LR029042) on both studs, paying special attention to ensure that they are completely covered.
2. Apply recommended high temperature lubricant (Land Rover part number LR029042) on the inner contact surface of the bushing with the turbocharger.
3. Install a new turbocharger actuator rod.
- Install new mounting clips.
- Using a suitable tool, turn the new retainers into the slots to verify proper installation.
- Apply protective grease to actuator studs and actuator stem connections.
4. Tighten the bolts to 10 Nm (7 lb/ft).
