Hi,
I am trying to fault find an issue with 2011 3.0D X351 XJ and keep coming across faulty or jammed turbo actuators being a common cause of boost issues which is one of my fault codes (along with MAF and MAP error codes).

Can anyone point me in the right direction for the location of the turbos (and therefore the actuators) and whether they are accessible and if engine component items need to be removed to gain access?

Thank you for your help

 

I assume it is the fixed vane turbo which is on the Right side of the engine (as sitting in the car). It is accessed by getting the car on ramps. Remove the long undertray bodtypanel. There is no need to remove the "ground effect" front undertray.

The front section of the RH exhaust pipe needs to be removed and the universal steerage linkage. You will then be able to clearly see the actuator assembly and follow the bouncing ball in the workshop manual.

At this point I should mention you need to have an electronic workshop manual which you can buy on line and are accessed via Adobe reader or similar.

You'll need a Tork 30 to remove the 4 mounting bolts. Remove the one at the back first.
