Been having a problem with my FL 2 2010, the turbo just doesn’t kick in, checked for airflow leaks and found nothing, changed the diesel filter (by watching your video) now going to try and replace the actuator, by watching your video, you may have saved me hundreds of pounds and days waiting to get it into a garage, thank you for these incredible videos you are helping the community in big ways! 💪🏼
Hi Charlie 👋. Firstly, great year of Freelander 2 as all the best people have a 2010 Freelander 2 😉😁. Hopefully your issue lies with the actuator and you can enjoy all the boostings that the turbo will bring you once again 🤞😃. We really appreciate the support and it makes us really happy when one of our rambly videos goes some way into helping someone else out 👌. - Scott
I believe the actuators re rated to 150k mileage wise so was prob about time to be done. My friends FL2 had one replaced at 148k but it has not solved the issues he is experiencing.
Ah, that's good to know that something broke about the time it was meant to break 😄. Hopefully, the one we have on now will last at least 100k when the car will probably be a pile of rust by that point 😁. - Scott
Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will be along to answer the question properly. 😁 But from what I can make out, the actuator is connected to the arm that you see in the video which connects to the turbo and it dictates how much or how little air gets to the turbo 😀. I just know that it needs to work in order for the car not to be in limp mode 😄. - Scott

In short it controls the air hitting the turbine giving u in simple terms the a low presure and high presure turbo in one ..... the vains moving makes it spool up quicker reducing lag and then the vains move to give u the head room of a larger turbo rather then running out of puff

I know it's a different subject but do you know if a second hand abs module can be reprogrammed and if so where they do it thanks
Hi David 👋.
I'm not sure. The only thing I can suggest is to search the Freel2 forum, and hopefully, that will bring up an answer for you 😀.

What does it do ? Does it control the turbo

It will control the geometry of the nozzles on th vnt turbo
