Title: Hello All
Post by: GaryG on October 20, 2020, 07:53:32 pm

Hi folks Im gary and recently moved from a mk4 v5 to a mk5 gti.

so far its been mapped had a 3inch decat added and that,s about it.

I must confess my reason for joining now is that I have developed a fault in which the actuator arm has sheared next to the wastegate leaving me with a lot less performance than desired. a little research shows that this isn't unheard of but many people don't document much in the way of a repair. I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of hopefully just replacing the rod or at most the full actuator with a standard part.

vehicle is a 2006 56 plate GTI with AXX engine code.

Thanks in advance, Gary
