Turbo in Grand Cherokee Jeep - Yep
Grand Cherokee 4x4 2.7 CRD and it seems to have a Turbo. Chrysler confirmed the C clip and is now on order. Being a late Mk IV the clip may be a late mod to improve the flange design as fractured bolts & manifold pipes have been mentioned on other news threads. We'll see when the job is done.

That is why you have a turbo, yours is a bit different than most here are used to dealing with.

Hi TimC;
How did the fix go?
My downpipe has just separated from the back of the Turbo, filling the engine bay with soot - as well as being noisy!
I'd be interested to hear how you got on.

Exhaust Fumes in Cabin
The problem turned out to be a 'C' clip that held the connect between the manifold & turbo into position but allowed movement. That's how I understood it. The garage said they recognized it as similar to a Mercedes arrangement.
The fix including parts was around £100 ( ~1-2 hour labour including chasing Chrysler for part number).
This wasn't a dealer but a 'good small garage' and reputation. Great to breath the air again!

Yeah, it's got a lot to do with the fact that fuel here is equivalent to about $10/gallon, and diesels do up to twice the mpg! which helps make it more bearable - although I far prefer the sound of a petrol/gas version.

Interesting - is there any reason for that other than mpg?
Have to say that I swapped my XJ 4.0I6 auto for a 2.5TD with stick-shift for better control offroading, and the GC diesel does have plenty of towing torque. But I still hanker for a 4.7 V8 - or SRT-8! - on-road

Hi, I have had this same problem occur on my 2.7 CRD Cherokee (broken c-clip). I have obtained replacement from jeep dealer, however I cant see where to fit it. I realise its been mentioned that its where the turbo connects to manifold, but would anyone have a picture of one of these fitted
Thanks
Thanks

Where
Garage reckon its a broken 'C' clip holding the pipe join between the manifold & turbo (Or that's what I understood was said - not bolted flange arrangement). Need to get the part number for the 'C' clip. Anyone know location of a parts database on-line to newbies??
No quotes but...
MrBeanSketch: Another use for a snorkel out of water - avoid passing-out at the wheel of a GC.
New GC Accessory of the Year: Internal Screen blower\heater running off the cigarette point just in case the exhaust system fills the cabin via air-con

Fumes in the cabin? Contact the tower to declare an emergency and request a vector to the nearest landing strip. Descend and maintain 2000.
