EXHAUST SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION - 2.7L DIESEL
CAUTION: Avoid application of rust prevention com-
pounds or undercoating materials to exhaust sys-
tem floor pan exhaust heat shields. Light overspray
near the edges is permitted. Application of coating
will result in excessive floor pan temperatures and
objectionable fumes.
The diesel engine exhaust system consists of an
engine exhaust manifold, turbocharger, exhaust pipe,
resonator, extension pipe (if needed), muffler and
exhaust tailpipe (Fig. 1).
The exhaust system must be properly aligned and
secured to prevent stress, leakage and body contact.
The exhaust components should be kept a minimum
of 25.4 mm (1.0 in.) away from the body and frame.
If the system contacts any body panel, it may amplify
objectionable noises from the engine or body.

TURBOCHARGER SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: The turbocharger is a performance part
and must not be tampered with. The boost pressure
bracket is an integral part of the turbocharger. Tam-
pering with the boost pressure components can
reduce durability by increasing cylinder pressure
and thermal loading due to incorrect inlet and
exhaust manifold pressure. Poor fuel economy and
failure to meet regulatory emissions laws may
result. Increasing the turbocharger boost WILL NOT
increase engine power.
The turbocharger used on this vehicle is of the
variable turbine type. These turbochargers use the
entire exhaust energy to boost efficiency of the turbo-
charger and the engine.
The advantages of a turbocharger with variable
turbine geometry are:
• Higher charge pressure already in the lower and
in upper engine speed ranges.
• Higher torque as a result of improved cylinder
charge.

• Reduction in exhaust emissions as a result of an
improvement in the air supply of the engine.
• Increased power output as a result of the higher
charge pressure combined with a reduced exhaust
backpressure and thus improved charge cycle.
OPERATION
The exhaust gases of the engine are directed
through the exhaust manifold into the turbine hous-
ing onto the turbine wheel (Fig. 2). The flow energy
of the exhaust gases cause the turbine wheel to
rotate. Consequently, the compressor wheel, which is
connected through the turbine shaft with the turbine
wheel, is driven at the same speed. The fresh air
inducted by the compressor wheel is compressed and
passed to the engine (Fig. 2).
The charge pressure is controlled by varying the
position of the guide vanes (Fig. 2). The guide stud of
the control linkage of the boost pressure actuator
turns the adjusting ring in the turbine housing (Fig.
2). As a result, all the guide vanes whose guide studs
likewise mesh into the adjusting ring, are also
turned (Fig. 2).
At low speeds, the flow cross-section is reduced by
closing the guide vanes (Fig. 2). Consequently the
speed at which the exhaust gas impacts on the tur-
bine wheel is increased, as a result of which the
speed of the turbocharger and thus the charge pres-
sure rises.
At high engine speeds the guide vanes are increas-
ingly opened and the flow cross-section is thus
enlarged, as a result of which the speed of the turbo-
charger reduces and the charge pressure drops.
CHARGE AIR COOLER AND
PLUMBING
DESCRIPTION
The charge air system consists of the charge air
cooler and charge air cooler piping.
The charge air cooler is a heat exchanger that uses
air flow from vehicle motion to dissipate heat from
the intake air. As the turbocharger increases air
pressure, the air temperature increases. Lowering
the intake air temperature increases engine effi-
ciency and power.
