Tip & How-To about Mazda MAZDA6
In order to avoid any possible damage while installing your turbocharger or premature operating problems, either of which could invalidate the warranty, please follow these simple intructions carefully and completely.
1) Ascertain why the old unit failed, you don't want the same problem to recur and damage the new unit.
2) check for cleanliness. the smallest particles of dirt can do irrevocable damage to a turbocharger so check engine intake/exhaust and aftercooler systems for cleanliness and obstructions, carefully removing oil, pieces of gasket, dust, dirt and other debris. Replace the air filter.
3) Check the oil inlet and oil drain flanges are clean and free from obstruction, internal carbon and sludge, removing them to clean if necessary. if in doubt replace with new.
4) Replace the oil and filetr
5) Check that manifold casting is not cracked on the outside or breaking internally.
6)Mount the turbocharger on the exhaust flange checking that turbine inlet gasket fits correctly to give a gas tight seal.
7) Connect the oil drain pipe using gasket supplied - do not use any liquid gasket products.
8) Fill the tubocharger oil feed hole with clean engine oil and rotate the rotor by hand.
Finally connect all external fitting to the turbocharger. Start the engine and idle for few minutes, check the oil is not leaking and the warning sign does not come up, check all connection for possible leaks using soapy water.

Possible Causes:
Charge air system leaks.Recirculating valve for turbocharger is faulty.Turbocharging system is damaged.Vacuum diaphragm for turbocharger needs adjusting.Wastegate bypass regulator valve is faulty.ECM has failed.Here's the causes for the code.
Turbocharger problems are some of the
most difficult to troubleshoot. The main purpose of the turbocharger is
to provide more air to the engine. The more air going into the engine
the more fuel that can be burned, which results in an increase in
horsepower. There are four main parts of the turbocharger: the
wastegate, center rotating assembly, turbine housing and the compressor
housing. By understanding how the turbocharger functions, it is possible
to uncover the causes of problems.
Difficulty:Moderate
Instructions
1.
Remove the nuts and bolt attaching the
top of the strut assembly to the body.
2.
Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Vehicle Lifting.
3.
Place jack stands under the front cross member.
4.
Lower the vehicle slightly so that the
weight of vehicle rests on the jack stands and not on the control arms.
Notice: Care must be exercised to
prevent the drive axle joints from being over-extended. When either end of the
shaft is disconnected, over-extension of the
joint could result in separation of the internal components and possible joint
failure. Drive axle joint boot protectors should be used any time service is
performed on or near the drive axles. Failure to observe this can result in
interior joint or boot damage and possible joint failure.
5.
Remove the tire and wheel assembly.
6.
Remove the brake line bracket.
7.
Scribe the strut flange.
Important: The
steering knuckle must be supported in order to prevent axle joint
over-extension.
8.
Remove the bolts and the nuts attaching
the strut to the steering knuckle.
Notice:
Care should be taken to avoid scratching or cracking the spring coating when
handling the front suspension coil spring. Damage can cause premature failure.
9.
Remove the strut from the Vehicle.
