Hello, I have had a look through the forum but cannot see what I am looking for, I have a 2014 petrol VRS which has a wastegate issue, does not put it in limp mode in fact the epc light has been flashing on for the last 18 month plus, no loss of power. It has been to one independent that has said new turbo, quoting £2600 for the job, telling me the wastegate is jammed, my thoughts were if it was jammed shut it would go in limp mode to prevent over boost and if it was jammed open it would not boost up as well as it does. They sort of said they didn't really want a car on a ramp for 10 hours plus, so I have taken it for a second opinion.  The second independent has said the wastegate moves but the actuator is faulty but from Skoda you cannot buy the part separately. My thoughts are there must be a supplier where I can get one from does anyone know of where I can get one? they said the turbo has been super seeded a few times so I need to find one to fit this part number 06K 145 874 M , although I am not adverse to having a new turbo fitted mine does work and it is an electronic part fitted to it that is the issue.

I don't know my turbos, but might it be 06H 145 710 C (superseded by 06H 145 710 J, £70.30 + VAT) from a Skoda dealership?

 

Hi Thank you for the reply, but it is the wastegate actuator that I am looking to replace.

OK, just went with the only bit that looked available on the parts diagram, guess it doesn't look like that then? 

 

 

This is the problem, Skoda only sell the complete turbo unit which is £1300-£1700 depending one where you go. If I could find the actuator it would be less than £200 for the part, just finding one is the issue. 

OK, I don't know the difference between a wastegate and whatever that is that I found, so you'd better wait for someone better at turbos! 🙂

'Skoda'  or Skoda Dealers employees have said this for years with Mk2 Fabia when a Customer was / is paying.  Funnily if a warranty was covering the cost Accuators were / are available.

There should be a wastegate available aftermarket. Think aftermarket mahle unit, on gen 3 electrically operated aren't they. Not vacuum units on gen 2.  There will be other suppliers but see link. Yours is an is20 tubo yes?

Yes it is an electronic piece of kit, the photo below is of the super seeded part number for the turbo, so I was told to find the actuator for that turbo. 
I will give that turbo vanes place a call tomorrow. Thank you for your help👍🏻
