    TD5 Turbo Wastegate Actuator Issues

    Hi Raywin, I finally received all the necessary bits to run the test (we are in the midst of a full lockdown in Ontario, Canada making buying more difficult ). I ran the Defender up a slight incline at >3000 rpm and read the pressure gauge. It typically ran to about 15psi, which I believe is...

    TD5 Turbo Wastegate Actuator Issues

    TD5 Turbo Wastegate Actuator Issues

    Hi Raywin and thank you for your response. Yes the vehicle was stationary, but I did have my daughter rev the engine and the actuator did not move. I didnt do a load test on a hill. One other bit of info is that I recently had a big issue whereby the injectors leaked so badly (over time) that...

    TD5 Turbo Wastegate Actuator Issues

    I wonder if anyone has this problem.... My turbo wastegate does not operate when the engines revs (and so my turbo does not operate properly), but when I disconnect the 4mm tube to the actuator and inject 15 psi air, the actuator moves as it should ( correct me if I'm mistaken). When is...
