If you experience a problem with your part or it is not functioning properly, the correct warranty procedure is to call us at (510) 257-1777 (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM ET Monday through Friday). Be sure to have your order number and/or other relevant order information ready so we can easily locate your order and resolve your issue as quickly as possible.

As is the case for the majority of the diesel products sold on Tamerx Diesel Products, your part's warranty is active as soon as you install it. In some other cases, warranty activation is contingent upon you sending us your core (i.e., your old part). Tamerx Diesel Products will provide you a return shipping label for parts that have a warranty with a core return condition. When we have received your core return, the part's warranty coverage begins. We reserve the right to void the product warranty if your core is not received within the allotted time, or if it isn't received at all. If the warranty for the diesel part you are purchasing has a core return requirement, it will be clearly noted on the product detail page/item listing.
What is a Core Charge?
A core charge (also called "core deposit") is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda and is a standard requirement in the auto parts industry. For example, in many states, to promote recycling, you pay a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have a core charge, or core price, that works in essentially the same way as a soda can deposit.
30 Day Core Charge Hold
You authorize Tamerx Diesel Products, to hold your credit card for the specified core charge amount and that you agree to return your core with 30 days of receiving the purchased part. When we have received your core return, the hold is released and the core charge payment is canceled.

The turbo assembly, OEM 23518588, is a crucial component in the Detroit 60 Series engines, specifically the 12.7L and 14L models from 1996 to 2008. This turbocharger enhances engine performance by increasing air intake, leading to more efficient fuel combustion and higher power output.
Key Functions of the Turbo Assembly
A turbocharger works by utilizing the exhaust gases to spin a turbine, which in turn drives a compressor. This compressor forces additional air into the combustion chamber, allowing the engine to burn more fuel and produce more power. Here are some key functions:
- Increased Air Intake
- The turbocharger compresses the incoming air, increasing its density.
- Enhanced Combustion
- With more air, the engine can burn fuel more efficiently.
- Boosted Power Output
- More efficient combustion translates to higher horsepower and torque.
- Improved Fuel Economy
- By optimizing combustion, the turbo can help improve fuel efficiency.
