Storage & logistics

For professionals managing bulk orders of 2.7 TDI 163 hp turbos, proper storage is essential to maintain the integrity of the units before installation. These turbos should be kept in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, which can degrade seals and bearings over time. Warehouses should implement a first-in, first-out (FIFO) system to ensure that older stock is used first, reducing the risk of units sitting unused for extended periods. Additionally, the core deposit units must be stored separately from new exchange standard turbos to prevent confusion and ensure accurate tracking of returns. Regular inspections of stored turbos are recommended to check for signs of moisture or contamination, which could affect performance once installed.
