Yeah i have a very bad feeling my turbo may be cracked or some sort of problem with it. So im guessing you currently have a cracked ko3 AGU? How easy is it to fit a ko3s to a pre 2000 1.8 GTi ?? Is there a lot of extra work involved do you know? (Thinking i might do the same as you now lol)

There are ways to test if it's the actuator, wastegate, turbo or something electrical. It's not really something i'd advise a novice to do though, one mistake could do some serious damage and ideally should be done on a rolling road.
