SHIPPING POLICY

Tamerx Diesel Products ships via UPS Ground. Next day air shipping can be arranged for a reasonable price of anywhere from $50.00 - $100.00 depending on the weight of the product and your location. We will do everything we can to make sure that you get the service you need. We understand how important it is to receive your order as quickly as possible.
In most cases Tamerx Diesel Products only needs one address, as long as your product is shipping to the same location as your billing information. In order to eliminate credit card fraud, your billing information must match the credit card you provide.

The terms, conditions, and details of our warranty vary from product to product. Specific warranty details can be found below.

Tamerx Diesel Products provides a replacement warranty on all of our parts. The duration and mileage limitations of the warranty vary by product and are specified on the product's detail page/item listing.

Please note that the warranty covers replacement of the part and the cost of shipping the replacement part to you only. It does not cover any shop, labor, towing, or any similar or related costs. This is not a "money back guarantee".

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. From that point, we will review with you any troubleshooting steps that may need to be taken and other areas or systems that can be checked to rule out external problems contributing to your part's issue. If a replacement is determined to be necessary, we will then arrange for your replacement part to ship out ASAP and issue any necessary return shipping labels and/or documents.

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 customer, or parts buyer, is responsible for any shipping costs associated with core returns unless otherwise specified in the product listing/detail page. Tamerx Diesel Products offers prepaid UPS shipping labels (SKU numbers UPS-CR1 and UPS-CR2) for use in returning your core that are available for purchase on our website during your shopping/order process.

The shipping label you will need to use for the core return is dependent upon what part you are purchasing. UPS-CR1 is good for cores weighing up to 20 pounds. UPS-CR2 is appropriate for shipping cores weighing 21 pounds or more. You must include enough information with the core return that clearly identifies it as a.) a Core Return, and b.) contains enough information we can use to clearly associate the core return with your order. Including a copy of the invoice or packing slip that came with the original shipment, clearly marked "Core Return", is ideal. Alternately, you can include a note marked as "Core Return" that includes your order number, full name and address, and phone number or other contact information. Failure to include this information with your returned core will most likely delay any due core credit being issued and/or delay any applicable warranty activation. Core returns need to be for the exact part purchased and cannot be damaged. Substituting another part in place of the part you have purchased is not acceptable.

All fluids must be drained.

If you have purchased a set or a parts package, you will need to return cores for all components of the set. For example, if you have purchaed a high pressure oil pump with an IPR valve, you will need to return both HPOP and IPR valve cores to receive proper credit. If you have purchased an EGR cooler/EGR valve package, your core return must consist of an EGR cooler core and an EGR valve core, or core credit will not be given.

Core Charges are often mandated by state legislature, and, as such, the actual core charge and taxes on the charge may vary depending on the state in which you buy your part. The Tamerx Diesel Products core charge presented to you online today with your item is representative of the most common core charge.

The turbocharger in the Caterpillar C12 engine is a crucial component for optimizing airflow and improving combustion efficiency. The Caterpillar C12 Turbo Assembly (OEM 0R7578) compresses the intake air, allowing for better fuel combustion, which leads to enhanced engine performance and fuel economy. Proper maintenance of the turbo assembly can prevent costly repairs and ensure smooth engine operation over time.

Key Functions of the Caterpillar C12 Turbo Assembly

  • Boosts Engine Air Intake
    • The turbocharger increases the amount of air entering the combustion chamber, ensuring better fuel combustion.
  • Improves Fuel Efficiency
    • With optimized air compression, the turbo helps the engine use fuel more efficiently, reducing overall fuel consumption.
  • Reduces Emissions
    • A well-maintained turbo ensures complete fuel combustion, lowering harmful emissions and keeping the engine running cleaner.
  • Durable and Reliable
    • The OEM 0R7578 turbo is designed for heavy-duty use, providing long-lasting durability under high temperatures and pressures.

Maintenance Tips for the Turbo Assembly

  • Inspect for Leaks
    •  Regularly check for oil or air leaks around the turbo, as leaks can reduce efficiency and potentially damage the engine.
  • Monitor Oil Levels
    • Ensure the turbo is well-lubricated by maintaining proper oil levels, preventing overheating and wear.
  • Listen for Unusual Noises
    • Abnormal noises from the turbo could indicate internal damage or a malfunction. Address any unusual sounds early to avoid costly repairs.
  • Replace When Necessary
    •  If the turbocharger shows signs of wear or reduced performance, replacing it with the OEM 0R7578 will restore power and efficiency to your engine.

The Caterpillar C12 Turbo Assembly (OEM 0R7578) plays a vital role in ensuring efficient airflow and engine performance. Regular maintenance and timely replacements will help keep your engine running smoothly and efficiently. For high-quality turbo assemblies and other essential engine components, TamerX Diesel Parts is your trusted source for reliable solutions.

A turbocharger is designed to enhance engine performance by increasing airflow to the engine, which helps boost power and efficiency. However, like any mechanical component, a turbo assembly has a limited lifespan. Understanding how long a turbo assembly lasts can help you plan for maintenance and replacement to keep your vehicle running smoothly.

Factors Affecting Turbo Assembly Lifespan:

  • Driving Habits

    • Aggressive driving, such as frequent hard acceleration or high-speed driving, can put additional strain on the turbo, leading to faster wear and tear.

  • Regular Maintenance

    • Proper engine maintenance, including regular oil changes, is essential for extending the life of the turbo. Clean oil ensures the turbo is properly lubricated, reducing friction and heat buildup.

  • Oil Quality:

    • Using the correct grade of high-quality oil is crucial for turbo longevity. Low-quality oil or infrequent oil changes can lead to oil contamination, which damages the turbo's bearings and seals.

  • Engine Load:

    • Vehicles that frequently operate under heavy loads, such as towing or hauling, can reduce the turbo’s lifespan due to the additional pressure and heat generated.

  • Proper Cooldown:

    • Allowing the turbo to cool down after heavy driving is important. Shutting off the engine too quickly can cause oil to burn inside the turbo, leading to carbon buildup and reduced efficiency.

Average Lifespan

On average, a turbo assembly can last anywhere from 100,000 to 150,000 miles, depending on the factors mentioned above. In some cases, with proper maintenance and care, turbos can last much longer.

The lifespan of a turbo assembly depends on driving habits, maintenance, and overall engine care. Regular oil changes, using high-quality oil, and allowing proper cooldown can help extend the life of your turbo. Keeping an eye on your vehicle’s performance and addressing any issues early can also ensure your turbo lasts as long as possible.
