actualy, juts had a thought. When I first got the car, I could hear the wastegate rattle in the turbo on idle. there was free play in teh wastegate actuator rod, so I adjusted it just enough to put slight pressue on keeping it closed on idle to stop the rattle.
On doing some netsurfing on this problem, I discovered there is supposed to be a certain amount of preload on the wastegate, which I gather is what I did, although probably not enough.
I couldnt find anything on the net about how to correctly set up a TD05 waste gate actuator. ANyone on here know the correct proceedure to do so just so I can eliminate it as a problem while I am checking the actuator out ?
