    Wastegate ceramic ring is broken

    A few months ago I dropped the ceramic ring (that is pushed by the WG spring on top of the EM and closes the WG) sitting at the bottom of my S2's wastegate, and by the hit on the floor a part of that ring broke off

    When I push my car now full throttle in the higher gears I hear some twittering sound of air escaping. I did boost leak tests, etc. but the only part that I can not test is the WG.

    Does somebody know if this ceramic ring is for sale seperatly or does somebody have a spare one?

    Thanks

      Thats knackered it then!
      You will have to find a whole new one off ebay, cheapest way to get one.
      I got a very good one for £40.
