pull the vac line off the turbo and try to move the wastegate rod by hand
|
Wastegates are sprung loaded, so simply removing the sensor line won't do a thing unless you have the muscle to move the rod manually anyway. Remove the wastegate, check the actuation of the door (ie, it's not seized), and have the wastegate tested by a turbo shop (any good turbo shop will test it for free, it's simply a pressure test). I have seen wastegates with torn diaprams that resulted in incorrect boost control, however this is rare, and I feel it may be more an electrical problem over manual one?!
