Turbo clamp broke, no boost after replacing.


Recommended Posts

I have a 2013 Mack Cxu613 MP8, It has a holset turbo, The V Band clamp broke, installed a New one. It’s not building boost. 

there was no noise when the old clamp broke, it just lost boost. 
 

I am going to  take the new clamp off and clean any corrosion and make sure everything is straight. 

then take intake hose off and try and turn turbine with engine off to see if it turns. 
 

just seeing if anyone else had any insights or suggestions.

Just a parts guy, but the oring for the compressor side could be pinched. We also see the CAC hot side pipe going into the turbo fail all the time, we usually replace the boots and clamps with spring loaded types. I only saw this once, but the CAC cold pipe going into the throttle valve had cracked somehow and was causing a decent boost leak.
