Turbo issues

[snoopdowg]

My Monte Carlo 1.2 Tsi was parked for 3 yrs. Got pads, discs, battery, service and MOT.

Engine light then EPC light showed on dash. Bought new actuator and had a look at Turbo, seems fine. But the rubber pipes which come from crank breather have green gunk in them. Going to clean out and clean MAP sensor. Is there something I'm missing?

Also changing PCV as engine shows some blow out.

Yes, you're missing the fault codes, you need to clear them and adapt the new actuator.

Thanks, how do I adapt new actuator ?

Also, with the new actuator, do I need to fit the shim which was fitted with the old actuator?

Yes, some turbos needed them as incorrect production tolerance. Was the subject of a recall so if it was fitted, then refit.

You need vcds or some other tool
