in this video i choose to make from start to finish with no voice or music only the work getting done.
the same fix works for several other cars with electronic turbo actuators
hope this helps someone.
thanks for watching and consider to subscribe to the channel for more content like this.
the light that comes on at the end is because there is a faulty glow plug and it light when the car is cold only.

@@PSICompanyPerformance mine is an electronic actuator, I've noticed it doesn't sweep when ignition is switched on, I'll be plugging into star later hopefully gives me some guided test functions

@@tomboud6591 in active tests ( in diag) it should allow you to position the arm at 20 40 60 80 100 per cent and as soon as you put ignition on the arm should adjust or sweep... good luck

about to attempt this today. cleaned egr yesterday and the car is basically driving just as a 2.2 litre with no turbo. diagnostic just said low boost. should i be looking for breaks cracks or is it most likely the actuator ?? gonna strip eah bit diwn carefully and look but i couldnt repair the motherboard if its the electrical side

Thanks for watching. Well you need to make sure that there is no leak on the intercooler pipes first, then you can check if the car has more power with the maf disconnected, if it does then its a faulty maf, but ideally you should make a diagnosis with a capable computer and it would be a lot easier to determine what is wrong because even a faulty MAP, MAF, EGR, Turbo actuator, etc will make the car go in limp mode that is what youre experiencing.. Good luck

it sound as it is the turbo actuator if there is no boost leak.

no need to remove the turbo... if you notice on the video i just remove the actuator and leave the turbo in place.
