Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
- Always use the new turbo manifold module and turbo adapter gaskets when replacing.
- Take care whether the oil feed pipe & hose assembly is interfered with turbo manifold module and any surrounding parts.
- If the oil feed pipe & hose is damaged, engine oil is not supplied sufficiently to the turbocharger then it may damage the turbocharger. If the oil drain pipe & hose is damaged and clogged, engine oil is not drained smoothly then it may cause oil leaks from the turbocharger. Be careful the oil feed pipe & hose not to damage.(bent, crushed, torn or cracked).
