Will this actuator fit a Ranger PX2 or PX3 3.2L?

No. The G-74 actuator suits the Garrett GTB2256VK and GTB2260VZK turbo family used on the Ranger PX1 and BT-50 UP 3.2L. The PX2, PX3, Everest and BT-50 UR run the later GTD2056V turbo (822182 or 889939) and need the SU-008 actuator instead.

How do I know if my turbo takes the G-74 actuator?

Check the ID plate on the turbo. If it reads 798166, 812971 or 853333 in any of their suffix variations, this is the correct actuator. Model year alone is not reliable because Ford and Mazda ran overlapping turbo families across these platforms.

Does the turbo actuator need to be calibrated after fitting?

It may. Electronic VNT actuators often require a calibration or relearn procedure with a scan tool after installation. Without it the vehicle can stay in limp mode or throw boost control fault codes even with a good actuator fitted.

Can I replace just the actuator instead of the whole turbo?

Yes, if the turbo itself is mechanically sound. If there is no shaft play, no oil leak and no whine, but the vehicle is in limp mode with an actuator or boost control fault code, replacing the stepper motor on its own is the usual repair.

Will this suit a Ford Everest 3.2L?

No. The Ford Everest was introduced in 2015 with the GTD2056V turbo family and was never fitted with the turbo this actuator suits. Everest 3.2L owners need the SU-008 actuator.

PX1 / UP 3.2L Only Hella G-74 Electronic VNT Garrett Cross-Referenced Express AU Shipping

The factory-calibrated electronic VNT actuator for the Garrett GTB2256VK / GTB2260VZK turbo fitted to the 3.2L P5AT DuraTorq in the Ford Ranger PX1 and Mazda BT-50 UP. Sold on its own, so if the turbo itself is healthy and the stepper motor has failed, you are not paying for a whole turbo to fix a $300 part.

Stepper motor failure on these is common and usually shows up as limp mode, under-boost or over-boost with no mechanical symptom from the turbo at all: no shaft play, no oil, no whine. If the turbo spins clean and the scan tool is throwing an actuator or boost control fault, this is the part.

Identify by turbo part number, not by year. Ford and Mazda ran overlapping turbo families across these platforms. The number stamped on your turbo ID plate is the only reliable way to select an actuator. Cross-reference tables are below.

Vehicle Fitment Guide

Vehicle	Engine	Build
Ford Ranger PX1	P5AT 3.2L	10/2011 to 06/2015
Mazda BT-50 UP	P5AT 3.2L	10/2011 to 09/2015
Ford Transit VM / VO	Duratorq 3.2L	2011 onwards

This actuator does not suit Ranger PX2 or PX3, Ford Everest, or Mazda BT-50 UR. Those run the later GTD2056V turbo family and take a different actuator. It also does not suit any 2.2L P4AT application.

Years are a guide only. Confirm against the turbo part number before ordering.

Wrong Actuator? Find the Right One

These four actuators look similar and are not interchangeable. Match your turbo number to the right listing:

798166 / 812971 / 853333 (3.2L PX1, BT-50 UP) is this listing
822182 / 889939 (3.2L PX2, PX3, Everest, BT-50 UR) needs the SU-008 actuator
787556 / 854800 (2.2L PX1, BT-50) needs the G-88 actuator
831157 / 889938 (2.2L PX2, PX3, Everest) needs the SU-001 actuator

Not sure? Send us your turbo ID plate number or your rego and state and we will confirm it for you.

Installation and Calibration Notes

Electronic actuators may require calibration after installation. Have a scan tool and the correct procedure ready before you start.
Skipping calibration can leave the vehicle in limp mode or throw boost control faults even with a good actuator fitted.
Set the linkage to the same effective length as the unit coming off before final tightening.
Always confirm the turbo ID before ordering. Fitting an actuator calibrated for a different turbo can cause over-boost or under-boost.
Professional installation is recommended.
