This charge air cooler is a heat exchanger designed to cool the compressed air from the turbocharger before it enters the engine cylinders, increasing power and efficiency. It is built to Volvo's exacting standards, providing superior thermal performance and resistance to corrosion compared to a damaged or clogged cooler. Observable symptoms of a failing charge air cooler include a significant loss of engine power, increased exhaust smoke, and higher operating temperatures.

Cross-reference part number with serial number before ordering to confirm fitment. Keep original parts until new ones are confirmed correct. Record part numbers replaced for future reference.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
A primary symptom of a failing charge air cooler is a noticeable reduction in engine power and responsiveness, often accompanied by black smoke from the exhaust. If the issue persists, the engine may overheat, and fuel efficiency will decrease significantly. Continued operation with a compromised charge air cooler can lead to severe engine damage due to inadequate cooling and improper air-fuel mixture.
Carefully inspect all charge air cooler hoses and connections for cracks or leaks before installing the new unit. Ensure all clamps are securely tightened to prevent air leaks, which can compromise performance.
When replacing the charge air cooler, inspect the turbocharger and all associated air intake hoses and piping for leaks or damage.
