Title: Does a 300tdi turbo fit a 200tdi?
Post by: ep90 on February 17, 2007, 16:01:32

I need to get a turbo for my 200tdi defender engine - does anyone know if a 300tdi one fits as these seem more common on the 2nd hand market.

Cheers

The 300TDi turbo and manifold are one piece, so you would have to remove your existing 200TDi manifold if the engine will even accept the 300TDi manifold.
