Q: How to remove and install a turbocharger on Chevrolet Cobalt,HHR and Saturn ION?
A: This process is specifically meant to be used on 2008 and later models that have a factory fitted turbo. First of all, the engine coolant should be drained below the level of the turbocharger. Later, take off the turbocharger and exhaust pipe heat shields. Then, you should remove the turbocharger exhaust pipe and seal.Apart from this, you should also remove the turbocharger oil feed pipe and gaskets with great care not to damage it.Also avoid twisting or kinking of the plastic tube. The next thing that should happen is removal of the entire turbocharger coolant return pipe as well as its gasket.In addition, if necessary get rid of cooler outlet pipe together with its feed pipe valve covers bolts.Firstly unbolt all mounting fasteners for your turbos along with brackets, then your oil return line and towards lastly PCV bolt.Finally remove turbo charger.Installation is a reverse order of removal.Before starting a vehicle check engine oil level in an engine.
