My F30 was stuck in Limp mode due to this issue, I’m happy that this issue is finally going to be fixed

[OptimusPerformante]

The most simple test is: Start your car when the engine is cold. You should hear a rattle noise close to the turbo and your RPM’s should be half RPM higher than your idle speed. After around 10 seconds (depends on the car) your RPM’s should go to the idle speed and the rattle noise is gone, that means that the gate is now closed and its functioning fine.

Woah this helped me a lot solved literally my problem I’ve been having and breaking my head over my cats in limp mode and I checked and mines an electrical waste gate actualtor which the harness plugs into is broken resulting in needing to be fixed pluged into a harness and yes I’m over boosting at 32psi but limited to driving my car to only rev up to 3.5k rpm my car is manual and I try brining the rpm’s up at times and the engine bogs “limp mode kicking in “ reducing the performance of my car. Now that I know that will be the cause to my struggles I’m going to order a wastegate actuator right now thank you 🙏 nice video very informative and clear thank you

My Mercedes CLS is in LIMP mode and no engine management light on. Do you think this may be a turbo actuator fault ? Thank you!

If you have an electric wastegate could symptoms come and go I have a 2013 328i with the twin turbos, sometimes my car drives perfectly fine, and then out of no where switches into limp mode, autozones code reader said wastegate actuator

[mikehaworth]

At the beggining of this video there is a short clip of the exhaust of a car and you can hear the wastegate actuator triggering. Is this the sound a bad wastegate actuator would make or is this the sound of a properly functioning wastegate actuator? Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you for your all your content. you do a great job and keep up the good work.

If waste gate actuator rod has snapped with heat and age and it doesn’t work can that make car smoke white really bad I bodged it up with wire to get home and it stopped

[amadeusgonzalez]

What if wastgate rattles at idle. Low boost

[normski]

Does anyone have an idea why ( sometimes) if you kick my CRD C300 down or try and make a drag start, it goes into kangaroo mode bucking or jurcking up the road. Ideas, could it be the waist gate, actuator or some other other reason. Anyone else had this problem, or engineers know of this issue ?

[wrathofpaulii]

could this cause a P2261 code? "turbo bypass valve-mechanical" in my Elantra sport. I keep getting this code, but it's very intermittent... usually it doesn't even get past "pending". What could it be?
