VW Polo 1.2 TDi Turbo Actuator not working

Post by Bowsie10 »

Hi Guys

I have a polo Blue motion 1.2 TDi. The vehicle has a severe loss of power, VW has tested the car and advised that the turbo actuator has packed in and that the turbo needs to be replaced.

Does this sound right? Can the actuator not be replaced on its own?

Any advise appreciated.

Some of the actuators are available loose. Have never enquired on that car. Phone goldwagen johannesburg CBD and ask for graham Savage. Let him check if it is available.
