[Mk2] [Turbo] how often should you change your actuator

Post by lee.w »

as mine is probably gettin on now and was a bit seized and a little corroded and it needed a little spray to get it moving as it got stuck on my downpipe and wouldn't move , I heard they can seize up after time

aussie , apparently my wastegate got caught on the downpipe when I had my system fitted , took it back to the garage the guy sprayed the arm to get it moving again as it was solid , when free I took it for a drive and it spooled up nice. I'm hoping it might not get caught again :pray: if it does I have the first aussie dp to get stuck ](*,)
