I just want to know why everyone makes a video of the front end which is easy but not the rear end which is a pita 😅 Edit: I say this because RR made me assume rear right.

So I just put on an ecs tuning diverter valve spacer as well as turbo muffler delete. Did the muffler delete first and ran it a few minutes.. fine. Did the spacer and now getting the code. Waste gate is fine. Could this possibly be the spacer not sitting right?
@vtraudt11 ай бұрын
For me the fix (on transverse as well as on longitudinal 2.0T) for this code has been to take the 'slack' out, caused by worn connection of the rod to wastegate. I have NOT used the clip (have seen the clip, but found hard to install). Instead I take the slack out by shortening the wastegate rods so that it is pretensioned again. The easiest way to BEND the rod (makes it shorter). The last car (my 2009 A4), the first bend was not enough, and code returned after a while .I applied an S shaped bend. Fixed now.

Hi, is it possible that the actuator rod is nice and tight but the wastegate flapper inside the turbo housing is loosed and wobbly? Great tutorial. Thanks

Hi, what if the top exhaust manifold bolt comes out with the stud. Can i just use loctite when putting it back? Thanks
@jd935211 ай бұрын
Hi highly recommend replacing it with new stud. Since contraction and and expansion (HEAT/Cold) tend to make metal brittle. But you can reuse the stud.

Had the same code few days ago. It turned out to be a small hose over the Turbo, it cracked and went loose. After fixing it there were no more errors. Also together with P0299 I had some glow plug codes. That tubing was also connected to the engine block right next to the plug no4.
@Connor-s1k3 ай бұрын
Hi, was the glow plug code P0674 by any chance? Cylinder 4 Glow plug circuit/open. I've got the same pair of codes and now I'm praying it's the same cause it sounds like an easy fix. If you have part number for the hose I'd be forever grateful

Heating the metal up softens the metal so when you smack it with a hammer, it will create a tight seal on the turbo instead of being loose.

Unfortunately yes. It is more cost effect to purchase a new turbo than taking out the turbo and repairing the waste gate because both procedures would be removing the turbo. Since you have to remove the old turbo; this is a good time to upgrade! More boost more power. That's what I did !

Its possible, but its going to be allot of maneuvering around the turbo and the CAT with the down pipe. Might need two people to do it. I would try to remove the CAT and down pipe 1st.

Assuming 10psi is the correct amount of boost you can do a boost leak test then at the same time read what the boost sensor is giving to the engine computer on your scan tool.. I use torque app pro on my smartphone together with the $25 dongle plugged into the OBD2 port. if there is a significant discrepancy its probably the sensor. Seal up any boost leaks while your there.
