Changing HDI VNT Turbo Actuator

Post by rlees85 »

Just need to know, can it be done? and how hard is it?

Also where is a good place to look for one as Peugeot only sell the whole turbo and nothing is coming up on ebay...

Pretty sure the turbo actuator is what is causing the last of my vacuum issues

Would it be worth getting another turbo, say from Ade the coupe breaker? I think that would be the first thing I would try.
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)
