thanks Rick.
I was able to get the intercooler out without removing anything but the top bracket;

I could get my arm down through the cutout to undo the bottomscrew ring clamp.

Very dirty, alot of blocked holes and black inside

Couple of goes with degreaser, then a litre of diesel

while it was soaking gave it a go with compressed air, straightened out the fins a bit, and gave it a bath

Emptied out the diesel and used laundry soap to flush the inside a few times,
ran the hose through it for a few minutes to get out any residue soap, it's now drying in the sun.
Now to investigate the crank case 'cyclonic breather', i think that is actually what is letting all the oil through to the air intake. Do they wear out (the cyclonic breather)?

I was out on the price of that TD04 cartridge, it was only $315 + $40 freight but they didn't do any T250 Garrett ones at the time.
I still can't fid the exact model TD04 MTQ use, but it bolts straight up to the 200Tdi manifold.
You'd need to fabricate a new dump though or buy one from them.
They usually charge around $250 for their cast dumps, but you know it'll bolt straight up.
thanks Rick, I'll follow that up, if I can get something better for the same or less money, why wouldn't I?
edit; I've sent an email to their Perth branch to see what they can come up with.
BTW that cartridge I've been talking of came from Asia, it wasn't locally sourced.
I don't know enough about the one I have to know what will fit or not.

i've sent an inquiry.
do these numbers ring a bell Rick?

Methinks that was the photo I was looking for
One of the blokes from MTQ let slip that they just pulled them out of the box and installed them, no changing compressor or turbine wheels.
has the same look as the one I have now, mostly. I wonder if that is where they got the 200tdi turbo setup -a range rover!
