anyone had anytrouble with getting turbo actuator trouble codes? i seem to get it occasionly wen launching.
 
The only time I had this was when my V band had spun round and was stopping the actuator from performing as it should. I think I mentioned it before mate.

yeah you did bud, and no thats not the case, wish it was haha, really annoying as it was launching fine around and about at home, went to santa pod last saturday did one run which was good and nothing happend and then 2nd run i get the epc light and into limp mode, turned ignotion off and on and its ok again, line up for a 3rd go and then after launching epc light comes on and back into limp mode. turned the car off and left it for 15mins, then drove home. wen i got near home i tried another launch and it was perfect, no epc light. really bugging me.
 
Very strange, might be a faulty actuator but I'm not sure if you can replace them on the IS38.
 
Oh nice one, just one of those things you will have to try mate.
