To fit

IMPORTANT: The oxygen sensor cable must not be of twisted type. Twisted cables exposed to vibration can break.
The oxygen sensor is sensitive to impacts and jolting and must be handled with care.
NOTE: Smear the studs and gaskets sparingly with Molycote 1000, part No. 30 20 971, or similar, to prevent them baking on.
NOTE: Spray the connector with Kontakt 61, part no. 30 04 520, before plugging in.
  1. Fit a new gasket for the front exhaust manifold.

  2. Fit the front exhaust manifold with turbo.

    Tightening torque: 20 Nm (15 lbf ft) 

    IMPORTANT: It is essential that there is oil in the turbo bearing housing when the engine is started. An extra check should be made when fitting a new turbo.

    Fill the turbo oil inlet with oil from an oil can. Rotate the compressor wheel by hand many times to ensure that oil enters the bearings.

  3. Raise the car.
  4. Fit a new gasket between the front pipe and the rear exhaust manifold.

    Tightening torque: 8 Nm (6 lbf ft) 

    IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of hoses mounted on the delivery side of the turbocharger coming loose due to low friction at high air pressures, the hoses and connecting pieces must be cleaned thoroughly before fitting. Use a rag dampened with 93 160 907 Motip Dupli cleaning agent to wipe clean inside the ends of the hoses. Clean also the connecting pieces. If hose clips are rusty or damaged, they must be replaced with new ones to maintain the correct clamping force.
  18. Fit the hose between the turbo and the charge air cooler.
