Morning all,I'm just in the process of reading up on peoples sticky turbo vains and wondered if this is one of the reasons why my car is very laggy. When the turbo spools up and I am moving the performace top end seems fine but the bottom end is very poor compared to my friends A3. Could the vains be partly seized up causing them not to move back all the way to the their resting place?The actuator does appear to move freely but I haven't disconnected it as it's a pig to get to.Any help or advice would be appreciated.CheersDave
