Wastegate actuator - test

- Is wastegate actuator failure causing your car's lack of power?
A malfunctioning wastegate actuator won't regulate fumes going to the turbine. Although still driveable, this results in lack of power and acceleration which means the car is virtually unusable.
In this film I'll show you how to check easily whether or not the actuator is working.

Amazing simple and straight to the point video perfectly done.
Short and explicit. Very good
Thank you
Another quick one k-nemo, an d Merry Christmas lads, why does the actuator move when you use you hands (0.06) but doesn't when you rave the engine?
Thanks a lot for the video! Appreciate if someone who did the swap themselves have a video to share. I got a 2012 Fabia (1.2TSI).
Thanks for watching.
hello, perfect video, I just miss how you replaced the actuator.. turbo out or just the actuator? and was calibration needed in the service? many thanks
I think this is most informative thank you. Im struggling with removing the heat shield, is there a specific method please.
Seems a bit tricky and some sensor in the way, did you find a way or even a video?
Hi!) Do you know pressure at which the actuator operates?
Hi first thanx for this vid my actuator doesnt move much what is a normal ammoint it has to move? And i only got the p155a code and my 2 map sensors are renewed can i change the wastegat actuator or do i have to lear new pressure hope to hear u thanx a lot
Mine is starting to go out. That rod rattles back and fourth easily. No warning lights or codes just yet.
is there any increased oil consumption?
I guess this is 1.2 tsi engine by VW-group. Thanks for this film. Now I understand how it should work. Is this turbo the wastegate-type or variable-geometry one?
Yes, it's VW group engine. Wastegate type.
@@k-nemo I got this engine in my Skoda Fabia
Hi where did you buy the replacement part from?
From a dealer
How to replace it?
Same problem with my Skoda Rapid 1.2 tsi (CBZB) . when i start the engine the actuater doesnt move. When i push the gas pedal doesnt move. The epc and check engine its lights on.
It seems like it
I’ve changed today that wastegate actuato, and all the problema has gone. Thanks for the video 🙏
@@andreiASK did you do it yourself or in a dealer - same problem here
@@andreiASK ai calibrat actuatorul dupa schimbare ?
Přesně toto mě trápí 🥺😭😭😭
¿Donde lo compraste?, no lo consigo yo. :(
Lo compré en el concesionario Skoda. Pero necesita calibración
Hi ,how do you find this parts error?
Does get some error code?
I wrote in the description for the film.
Does the actuator need to be programmed in or calibrated? If so how can it be done....thanks
Should be calibrated. Unfortunately this was done by someone else.
@@k-nemo ah ok, do you know if it was just a case of replacing the part and no additional calibration is required?
IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GIVE MONEY FOR CALIBRATION, JUST TURN ON AND OFF IGNITION 15 TIMES, AND THEN START YOUR CAR AND THE EPC LIGHT WILL GONE 😉 THANK ME LATER
Hey i have Malibu 2.0 does the wastegate suppose to move when u start the car
Yes, it does.
@@k-nemo mine doesnt move which means i have to replace it ? or there is any way to fix thanks in advance
@@iragubenko4815 mate did you sorted?
My car is doing exactly the same thing, but the mechanics insist the actuator is fine. When you move by hand it goes back and forth, but when you start the engine it only moves once then locks in position. He tried to calibrate it and it only goes to 77% but when the turbo is not connected it goes to 95% and advice? Please!!!
When you press accelerator at the engine changes speed actuator should move.
@@k-nemo Thanks for your reply man, I will be meeting with the mechanic later on today (5pm C.A.T) so will let you know what happens after that.
Enjoy

Hello mate did you sorted? I have the same
@@JohnWalker-bj3jb Are you experiencing actuator problems. In my case in turn out to be the turbo so I replaced it with a good second hand from the car breakers.
Hi, my vw 1.2 tsi wastegate actuator moves once or twice when i rev the engine. after that it stays in one position. no warning lights yet. When i try to move the rod with my had i see the same thing. it doesnt always come back to normal position. could it be actuator issue or the valve itself. any advice?
If it malfunctioned there would be a noticeable drop in power when driving.
@@k-nemo i tried the calibration method by turning the ignition on and off several times and found the actuator is moving like normal. Just found on another thread about someone with a similar problem i am facing. I have a slight drop in power only when trying to go uphill which is accompanied by vibrations too. and a continuous rattling while the engine is in the 1.5 to 2.5 rev range. the rattle is absent when i press the accelerator softly though. i was thinking wastegate problem or a boost leak.
@@dominicsachdid you ever get to the bottom of this? I'm currently experiencing the same issues you have
Hi, so my wastegate was functioning normally. That movement was the system self check as I understood after checking with my car mechanic. My issue was with the flywheel. Had to have it replaced and that fixed my issue.
@@dominicsach this is very interesting since I have the same problem ( a continuous rattling while the engine is in the 1.5 to 2.5 rev range) and nothing when the accelerator is not pressed. No light or any failure but my actuator is not moving at all when I accelerate. What did you change at the end ? (the flywheel ?? ) many thansks in advance for any firther help !
were there any mistakes?
I wrote in the description for the film.
you should give commentary on it its self explanatory though
I'm sorry to hear my video wasn't helpful. I'm sure you'll find a lot of videos with commentary in English
not really impressed, there is a lot more to it than just mounting
also has to be learned, I don't see that in the film
Hi did u have to get the actuator calibration to the the turbo or did it just for ok after fitting
I've only made the film to show if the actuator works or not. The old actuator didn't move at all. The part was actually changed in the garage so I'm sure if they calibrated it. But I've read it's necessary.
Thank for you reply going to test mine tomorrow as car keeps going into limp mode
Good luck
@@simonattard7392 Did you replaced it?
FOR ALL OF YOU WHO DON'T WANT TO GIVE MONEY FOR CALIBRATION, JUST TURN ON AND OFF IGNITION 15 TIMES, AND THEN START YOUR CAR AND THE EPC LIGHT WILL GONE 😉 THANK ME LATER (THIS WORKS ON MY SEAT IBIZA 1.2 TSI)
15 times? Not for 15 seconds?
