I have a faulty electronic turbo actuator on my 2007 A4 Avant 3.0TDI. I have run VCDS and it shows an electronic fault with the actuator. I have performed an output test with VCDS on the actuator and there is no movement of the actuator during the test. The actuator moves freely by hand on the turbo. Car goes into limp mode straight away on start up and previous to this I have no turbo issues.
Basically what I want to do is just replace the faulty actuator which i am 100% sure is the problem. I have emailed various turbo specialists and they have all said different things from you need a complete new turbo and actuator to we can't help at all!
My questions are has anyone put just a new actuator on these cars? Does it need programming in some way, I keep reading about this on the net? Where can I get this done etc etc ... or as the wastegate stop screw is all ready set will it be ok?
The part I need is a Borg Warner 059145725E or a KKK 059145715F turbo
