Carlos,

Thank you for the pictures.

User friendly translation:
Carlos after doing some pressure tests was loosing lots of pressure through the top chamber of the wastegate. He has dismantled it to try and find the weakest link on our old wastegates.

He doesn't like the look of the main "axis" of the wastegate, is it possible that pressure is loose because of a fault of this part (the one in the second to last picture)

Paul, what do you think?

Cheers,
Rafael

If the air came from the top chamber then it has to be the diaphragm leaking.

[The Spanish]

Sorry,

I did not understand him well. In his case, air comes from the "side exit". He says that the valve shape metal piece you see he is holding looks cracked and air escapes between that piece and the housing where the axis piece enters the wastegate, eventually air goes through the side exit.

Can that piece be bought as a spare?

Don't know if I am confusing even more you guys with the translation But as I don't know the technical terms just have to describe in the best possible way


Cheers

Ok then. Bad news. The diaphragm is the only spare part for WG available.
