Turbo Intercooler Outlet Hose 13240176

Ensure consistent boost delivery and eliminate annoying boost leaks with the genuine turbo intercooler outlet hose (part 13240176). This high-performance air pipe carries pressurized charge air from the turbocharger outlet to the intercooler inlet, maintaining optimal engine response under all driving conditions.

Key Benefits

• Exact OEM Fit
  Manufactured to the original GM/PSA blueprint, the 13240176 pipe aligns perfectly with turbocharger and intercooler flanges—no trim or adapters required.

• Reinforced EPDM Construction
  High-grade EPDM rubber layer bonded to a braided polyester textile core resists boost pressures up to 1.5 bar and temperature extremes from –40 °C to +150 °C.

• Superior Durability
  Crush- and abrasion-resistant walls withstand engine-bay vibration and road debris without cracking or collapsing.

• Leak-Free Performance
  Integrated molded couplings and factory-molded bead ridges ensure airtight seals under high boost, preventing loss of power and turbocharger surge.

• Simple Installation
  Clip-on couplings match OE hose clamps; install in minutes with standard hand tools and torque settings.

Applications & Fitment

While originally specified for the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia 2.0 CDTI turbo diesel, this turbo pipe also fits any PSA-based or GM-sourced vehicles using the 2.0 CDTI/HDI turbo system with part code 13240176. Always verify compatibility by matching the stamped part number on your existing hose.

Installation Overview

1. Depressurize – allow engine to cool and release any residual boost pressure.

2. Remove Old Hose – loosen both OE clamps, then twist and pull the hose free from turbo outlet and intercooler inlet.

3. Inspect Flanges – clean flange faces of oil residue and debris; ensure no corrosion or warping.

4. Fit New Hose – slide each clamp over the ends, push the hose fully onto both flanges until it seats on the bead.

5. Secure Clamps – torque each clamp to manufacturer specification (typically 2.5 – 3 Nm).

6. Test – start engine and verify no boost leaks under both idle and acceleration.
