    Possibly hose from turbo-intercooler pipe direct to turbo wastegate valve?
    correct, i just did this today, bypasses modulator valve, so can help identify if experienced problems are related to it

    How did people go with the waist gate... Mine seem to jamming up... Once freed up with multi grips seems to move a better..And engine cutting out when the turbo should be kicking in.... The nano com is reading over boost...

    for me it was the modulator valve, as bypassing it fixed it, just getting a replacement part now.

    If it's over boosting an adjustment of the rod length may be in required.
    I see you found my link to "golden spanners", let us know how you go.


    Mine turned out to be a hose issue.
    It must have had a hole I couldn't find.
    I tried the bypass for the modulator and it made no difference.
    It got worse on Sunday's trip and had a 25mm tear in it by the time I got home.
    Cheers, Kyle
