tat-tat-tat-tat goes my turbo @ max psi

[Jutboy]

Hello all...I just changed changed/checked all vacuum tubing,tightened all my clamps connected to the turbo,boost control solenoid, and pressure exchange solenoid.......

 

I also found leaking PCV pipe, pipe #8 and #9 on Vikash's page...I also remembered i just changed to a new MAF sensor ( which had exactly the same part code on the box and stopped my CEL)....what could be going wrong here?

Have you checked to see if your wastegate solenoid is good?

[Jutboy]

could you explain how to do this?

 

Thanks - Justin

I would get a hand held vacuum pump, just hook it to the actuator nipple, and make sure the actuator holds vacuum, and it's actuating all the way.

I'm an idiot - one of my spark plugs was fouled.....I changed it and it runs great now.....every now and then I get a pop though...once every other day (I drive about 50 miles a day)...should I worry about it?

 

THANKS FOR THE HELP ALL!!! Justin

I'd just keep an eye on the plugs, and you may want to check the plug wires.

 

You may also want to run some injector cleaner or something to clean things out a bit, because you probably were depositing some carbon build up from the plug being fouled.
