Hi fellow S2 fans!
I have a -91 S2 3B, it has rolled ~220 tkms. I think the wastegate is somewhat tired, but don't know if it affects performance, don't want to exchange it unless I have to.
The membrane is in good shape I think, but when I pressurize the intake there's a significant leak in the WG when going past ~0,5Bar (guess this is the actuator opening, and air leaking past the stem?). When squeezing the WG hose the pressure stays up nicely.
Removed the WG cap and measured play in the WG "valve", was ~1 mm.
Is this normal or should i change the wastegate?
Regards,
