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 EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) cooler is a critical component in the emissions control system of the Caterpillar CT13 and CT11 engines. The Caterpillar CT13, CT11 EGR Cooler (OEM 473-8061) helps reduce the engine’s emissions by cooling exhaust gases before reintroducing them into the engine’s combustion chamber. Maintaining this component is crucial for optimal engine performance and compliance with emissions standards.

Key Functions of the EGR Cooler

  • Reduces Emissions
    •  By cooling exhaust gases, the EGR cooler helps lower nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, which is essential for meeting environmental regulations.
  • Improves Engine Efficiency
    • The cooled exhaust gases enable more efficient combustion, contributing to better fuel efficiency.
  • Prevents Overheating
    •  By managing the temperature of exhaust gases, the EGR cooler helps prevent engine overheating, protecting key engine components.
  • Durable Construction
    • The OEM 473-8061 EGR cooler is built to withstand the high temperatures and pressures found in diesel engines, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Maintenance Tips for the EGR Cooler

  • Regular Cleaning
    • Over time, carbon deposits can accumulate in the EGR cooler, reducing its efficiency. Regular cleaning is essential to maintain optimal airflow and cooling.
  • Inspect for Leaks
    • Check for signs of coolant leaks around the cooler, as this can lead to overheating and damage to the engine’s components.
  • Monitor Engine Temperatures
    •  If the engine is running hotter than usual, it could indicate an issue with the EGR cooler, requiring inspection or replacement.
  • Replace When Necessary
    • If the cooler shows signs of excessive wear or damage, replacing it with the OEM 473-8061 will help restore the engine’s efficiency and emission control.

The Caterpillar CT13, CT11 EGR Cooler (OEM 473-8061) plays a vital role in reducing emissions and maintaining engine efficiency. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of the EGR cooler will ensure your engine continues to meet emissions standards and operates at peak performance. For high-quality EGR coolers and other essential diesel engine components, TamerX Diesel Parts is your trusted source.

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler is an essential component in your vehicle’s emissions system, designed to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by cooling exhaust gases before recirculating them back into the engine. When the EGR cooler fails, it can lead to various engine problems and performance issues. Recognizing the symptoms of a bad EGR cooler can help you address the issue early, preventing costly repairs and maintaining engine efficiency.

Common Symptoms of a Bad EGR Cooler

Here are some of the most common signs that your EGR cooler might be failing:

  • White Exhaust Smoke
    • A bad EGR cooler can cause coolant to leak into the exhaust system, resulting in white smoke coming from the tailpipe. This is often a clear indicator of coolant entering areas where it shouldn't be.
  • Loss of Coolant
    • If you notice that your coolant levels are dropping without any visible leaks, it could be due to the EGR cooler leaking coolant internally into the exhaust system.
  • Engine Overheating
    •  A malfunctioning EGR cooler can cause your engine to overheat. This occurs when the cooler fails to properly regulate exhaust gas temperatures, putting additional strain on the engine cooling system.
  • Check Engine Light
    • The engine control module (ECM) may detect issues with the EGR cooler and trigger the check engine light. A diagnostic scan can help confirm if the EGR system is involved.
  • Reduced Engine Performance
    • A failing EGR cooler can disrupt the flow of exhaust gases and coolant, leading to reduced engine performance, such as loss of power, sluggish acceleration, or rough idling.
  • Coolant Contamination
    • If coolant is leaking into the exhaust or intake system, it may cause contamination in the coolant reservoir, often appearing discolored or mixed with oil.

A bad EGR cooler can cause serious engine performance issues and even lead to engine damage if left unchecked. Symptoms such as white exhaust smoke, coolant loss, engine overheating, and reduced power are clear indicators that your EGR cooler might be failing. Prompt attention and proper maintenance will help ensure your engine runs efficiently and avoids costly repairs down the road.

The EGR cooler reduces exhaust gas temperatures before recirculating them into the engine to minimize NOx emissions.

By cooling recirculated exhaust gases, it helps maintain optimal combustion temperatures, improving fuel efficiency and engine reliability.

Regularly flushing the coolant system, using high-quality coolant, and inspecting the EGR system for buildup can prolong its lifespan.

A damaged cooler can lead to engine overheating, increased emissions, and potentially costly repairs such as cylinder head damage.
