Mercedes-Benz Turbochargers FAQ

What Does a Turbocharger Do for a Mercedes-Benz?

It compresses excess air flowing into the engine cylinders. This makes it so that the engine can then take in more fuel. It burns more air and fuel, and it produces more power. The result: better horsepower and acceleration, and a bump in torque -- a more exciting ride.

How Does a Turbocharger Work?

Turbos are made up of two main sections -- a turbine, which holds a turbine wheel and has a housing, and a compressor, which contains a compressor wheel and its own housing. The turbine housing allows exhaust gas into the turbine wheel, turning it; the gas then exits the housing through an exhaust outlet.

The compressor works opposite to the turbine; its wheel, attached via a forged steel shaft, gets turned by the turbine at high velocity, draws air in, and compresses it. The housing pressurizes that air and diffuses it into a low-velocity stream. That compressed air's then pushed into the engine for combustion.

What Turbochargers Do Mercedes-Benz Vehicles Use?

Besides standard, twin-turbos, variable geometry turbochargers, and electric turbos. Twin turbocharging uses two turbos to produce extra power, while variable geometry turbocharging adjusts performance based on speed. Electric turbocharging, on the other hand, minimizes lag to make power available more quickly.

How Much Does Mercedes-Benz Turbocharger Replacement Cost?

According to RepairPal, $2,000 to $2,00 or more on average. That can vary by Mercedes-Benz model, though. The average cost of replacing the turbo on a Mercedes-Benz E 320, for example? $2,370 to $3,400 plus.
