System Notes — AIR INLET AND EXHAUST SYSTEM
The air inlet and exhaust system covers the air cleaner housing and elements, intake piping, turbocharger, aftercooler, exhaust manifold, turbo mounting hardware and gaskets. It delivers clean, dense air and carries hot gas away. On this group, the two dominant failures are dust ingress and heat cycling: a leaking intake joint lets unfiltered air straight into the cylinders and dusts the rings in a few hundred hours, while exhaust manifold and turbo flange gaskets crack from repeated heat cycles and start whistling or sooting. Parts are replaced when boost drops, the intake tract shows dust trails past the filter, or a soot streak appears at a joint.
System Notes — HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The hydraulic system covers the main pump, control valves, cylinders, hydraulic tank, filters, hoses and all the fittings that connect them. It converts engine power into the pressure and flow that drive boom, bucket, steering and travel functions. Hydraulic parts fail mainly through contamination and heat: dirt that passes a worn breather scores pump components, aged hoses crack at the crimp, and O-rings harden and weep under pressure. A part in this group is normally replaced when a function drifts, a cylinder creeps, oil shows up under a machine that used to be dry, or the filter comes out loaded with metal.
