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 John Deere Turbo Assembly (OEM RM100404) is an essential engine component because it manages the airflow needed for efficient combustion by converting exhaust energy into compressed intake air. Designed for 2011–2022 John Deere applications, this turbo assembly helps the engine operate smoothly while supporting the intake, exhaust, and emissions systems. As a John Deere REMAN component, it is remanufactured, thoroughly inspected, and tested to meet or exceed original OEM performance specifications. 

Although it works behind the scenes, the turbo assembly plays a major role in the overall operation of the engine.

Why is the John Deere RM100404 Turbo Assembly important?

  • Makes efficient use of exhaust energy
    • Instead of allowing exhaust gases to escape unused, the turbo captures that energy and converts it into compressed airflow.
  • Supplies the engine with compressed air
    • A steady flow of oxygen-rich air helps create the proper conditions for clean and efficient combustion.
  • Responds to changing engine workloads
    • The turbo automatically adjusts airflow as engine speed and operating demands change, helping maintain consistent performance.
  • Supports the intake and exhaust systems
    • It connects these systems, helping maintain balanced airflow throughout the engine.
  • Contributes to emissions system operation
    • Proper airflow supports emissions-related components by providing the conditions needed for effective exhaust treatment.
  • Promotes dependable engine operation
    • Consistent airflow helps reduce unnecessary stress on engine components and supports reliable day-to-day performance.

The John Deere RM100404 Turbo Assembly serves as the engine's airflow management hub. By recovering exhaust energy and transforming it into compressed intake air, it helps maintain efficient combustion, supports critical engine systems, and contributes to the long-term reliability of the engine. Its ability to manage airflow efficiently makes it one of the most important components in the engine's overall operation.

A turbo assembly does not have a scheduled replacement interval like oil filters or belts. Instead, it should be replaced when it shows signs of excessive wear, internal damage, or can no longer operate efficiently. With proper maintenance, many turbo assemblies can last 150,000 to 250,000 miles or more, depending on the engine and operating conditions.

Rather than replacing the turbo based on mileage alone, it's best to monitor its condition and address problems as they arise.

Here are the most common signs that it may be time to replace your turbo assembly:

  • Persistent loss of engine responsiveness
    • If the vehicle feels sluggish or struggles to accelerate despite proper engine maintenance, the turbo may no longer be producing adequate boost.
  • Excessive exhaust smoke
    • Blue smoke often indicates leaking turbo seals, while black smoke may result from insufficient airflow caused by a failing turbocharger.
  • Whining, grinding, or rattling noises
    • Unusual sounds from the turbo are often signs of worn bearings, damaged turbine wheels, or internal mechanical failure.
  • Excessive oil consumption or oil leaks
    • Oil leaking from the turbo housing or a noticeable increase in oil usage can indicate internal seal failure.
  • Repeated boost-related fault codes
    • Recurring underboost or overboost codes after other issues have been ruled out may indicate the turbo assembly has reached the end of its service life.
  • Visible internal damage during inspection
    • Excessive shaft play, damaged compressor blades, cracked housings, or severe bearing wear are strong indicators that replacement is necessary.

Replacing the turbo assembly at the first signs of significant wear can help prevent damage to other engine components. Regular oil changes, clean air filters, and routine inspections are the best ways to maximize turbo life and reduce the likelihood of unexpected failures.

Yes. The RM100404 is remanufactured to John Deere OEM specifications to ensure compatibility with the original mounting locations, oil passages, intake plumbing, exhaust connections, and electronic controls where applicable.

Technicians should inspect the oil supply and return lines, intake tubing, charge-air cooler hoses, exhaust manifold, mounting hardware, air filtration system, and intercooler to help ensure proper turbocharger operation.

Using the OEM RM100404 helps ensure proper fitment, factory-designed airflow characteristics, compatibility with the original engine configuration, and the reliability expected from a genuine John Deere REMAN turbocharger.

Using clean engine oil and following recommended maintenance intervals helps lubricate the turbocharger bearings, reduce friction, minimize heat buildup, and extend the service life of th
