About this category
The Renault 1.5 dCi 86 hp turbo category addresses a common pain point for drivers and mechanics: turbocharger failure in diesel engines notorious for premature wear. This range includes exchange standard turbos designed for direct replacement, eliminating the need for costly OEM purchases. Whether for a 2010 Clio, a 2012 Megane, or a 2015 Captur, the turbos in this category are engineered to restore power delivery and fuel efficiency without compromising reliability.
Each turbo in this category is sourced from a network of remanufacturers who specialize in diesel applications, ensuring that the core components meet or exceed original equipment standards. The role of the wholesaler here is to aggregate these high-quality units, providing garages and private buyers with access to a curated selection that simplifies the procurement process.

How to choose
Selecting the right turbo for the 1.5 dCi 86 hp requires attention to several factors beyond basic compatibility. This section outlines the key criteria that distinguish reliable exchange standard units from inferior alternatives.
- Verify the turbo’s geometry matches the original unit to prevent mismatches in boost pressure or airflow characteristics.
- Check the condition of the cartridge and housing for signs of wear or corrosion that could affect long-term performance.
- Ensure the turbo includes a core deposit label for hassle-free returns of the old unit, simplifying the exchange process.
- Prioritize turbos with a documented remanufacturing process that includes balancing and pressure testing.
- Confirm the turbo’s packaging is designed for wholesale distribution, reducing handling time for garages and distributors.
- Look for units that are pre-matched to OEM references to eliminate guesswork during installation.
- Select turbos from suppliers with a track record of consistency in quality and delivery times.
Storage & logistics
For garages and distributors, proper storage of exchange standard turbos is essential to maintain their condition until installation. Store units in a dry, temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight, and avoid stacking heavy items on top to prevent deformation. For bulk orders, use palletized storage with protective covers to shield against dust and moisture. Always keep turbos in their original packaging until ready for use to preserve calibration and prevent contamination.
