I need someone to explain to me how to get to the Actuator on my MY01. Being a bit Fick pictures would be great.

I'm assume the intercooler has to come off

 

Anyone ?

 

no pics im afraid ... but i did just replace mine to sort out my wavie boost!

here goes - very easy - takes about 20 mins 2 swop for a new one..

take the intercooler off - be careful with the fins...

then - unbolt the heatsheald around the turbo. there are abt 6x10mm bolts there ... some are a bit tricky to get your hand too - and a racket spanner is helpful if you have one!
then you can see the actuator. its held on with another 2x10mm bolts , and a C-clip on the actual wastegate arm - make sure u dont loose it!

make sure you put abt 2mm of tension preload on the actuator arm to get it back over the FULLY SHUT wastegate.

cheers
Steve
