Car - 2008 Audi S5 4.2 FSI (CAUA)
So im currently in the midst of my first intake manifold out job to replace 3 fuel injectors and do a walnut carbon cleaning and ran into trouble removing the manifold and the intake manifold actuator broke in the front as well as the coolant hose to the back of the manifold by the throttle body and was looking for some advice/help on how to get my car back together as I have replaced the injectors already and just need to do the carbon cleaning and put it all back together. As for the coolant hose im most likely going to replace the entire part from rockauto shown below with the red circle for $60 and then im coming here for advice on the actuator because id rather not spend the $200 to buy a new one and not know how to install that either.
TLDR: broke my intake manifold actuator while removing IM and need to fix before reinstalling, do i have to buy whole new actuator for $200?
