I doubt it, it wasn't on VAGCOM it was on a smaller device... I'll try get some more at some point, what are they supposed to be/look like?

Right...

Me n BaV have changed over his MAF, MAP and N75 to mine and it was still running sloppy. But, I've found a pipe that was supposed to be on top of the wastegate / actuator! so we've put that on and it's a lot better! it doesn't sound like a boost leak no more but it's still overboosting a little...

So i'm assuming now it's got to be actuator??

Cheers

the actuator vac line wasn't attached? :shocked:

does the actuator rod move smoothly by hand?

We'll have to check that ina minute because it's cooking under there!

Are you ok to talk us through the MAF / MAP logs on VAG-COM if we ring you (if you don't mind, PM me your number)

Cheers mate...

Mainly @ Toph this one...

Do you advise me Tweaking the N75 screw at all? after discovering the 7psi overboost there must be away of tweeking that instead of the actuator or even the map?

no leave it well alone mate .. if swapping n75 with bav made no difference it isn't worth the risk of knackering the n75 and wouldn't help cure a suspected jammed wastegate issue anyway

did you manage to get that log of 118 yet?
