I got the dreaded rattle coming from the turbo. after trawling the forums I convinced myself it was the was actuator linkage. And not something more sinister.. ie something rattling in the engine. I had a rattle on deceleration <2K rpm i wasn’t in any rush to replace the turbo so bought the clip that was supposed to cure the rattle. Also I really didn’t want to remove the turbo or the exhaust pipe in order to access the area where the clip needed fitting. i squashed the clip in a vice to ensure it was a tighter fit. Then basically I attached the clip into a socket head (can’t remember the size) with a rubber band. And with a socket extension and a cheap iPhone endoscop, I was able to see and reach right up to the actuator arm linkage behind the headers and slide the clip right on. this cured the rattle but I don’t expect it to last long. Been on a couple of months now and so far so good. so just for info - this clip can be fitted without the need to remove ANYTHING EVGATSAUTO Engine Turbo Clips... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08BPGJJJM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Turbocharger wastegate actuator( code 2565, Circuit high)
kassi posted a topic in Audi A3 (8V) Forum
Hello everyone. I got into some trouble after buying a used 50000 km Audi A3 8v. Just after a week i got this EPC and Engine check light when i was driving. EPC light goes off every night and when i go to work again next morning it shows up again. ON IDLE: Turbocharger actuator voltage : 3.68 -3.71V Turbocharger wastegate position: 0 -3% Turbocharger was changed recently by the previous owner. I dont know if they changed the actuator or not but it looks good in condition no rust. I recorded couple of Actuator parameters with OBD II Scanner. Driving on highway i let the throttle go (no throttle) around 90km/h suddenly the EPC and Engine Check Light came on(attaching video with it). And the actuator signal voltage went to 4.99v which actually stays at around 3.7v without epc and engine light. After EPC light (seems like actuator position sensor failure) the actuator stays at 0% and i get Poor acceleration. Help would be really appreciated. Screen_Recording_20230621_232903_1.mp4
