Turbocharger Wastegate Actuator Service | TechLine

The wastegate can be controlled by a vacuum actuator or an electronic solenoid. Both systems require a preload adjustment of the rod attached to the arm on the wastegate. If the rod is not adjusted when the actuator or turbocharger is replaced, it can cause the valve to leak or not open enough. Andrew Markel discusses how to diagnose a wastegate actuator and perform a pre-load adjustment.

What a useless video. In what way is this an actuator service? You just vaguely explain what a wastegate actuator does!

[@andymarkel]

Check the service information for the specific procedure.

[@BlueXonar]

@@andymarkel The procedure will be "replace the actuator" which usually means "replace the turbo"
This advice is somehow more useless than the video. ;)
