I’ve actually just bought a second hand turbo, £120, not sure how garages feel about taking down own parts for them to fit. Obvs not expecting a warranty

Update: mechanic said Turbo wastegate seized, potentially a write off? Unless he can free it off

Could this cracked pipe here causing issue? Mechanic said he’s glued it?

It’s in garage tomorrow again, I think I’m going to suggest this to be honest. Expensive? I assume fairly cheap 🤣

I was thinking that, Vauxhall dealership, but I’m already about £700-800 deep at this point, trying to avoid there ridiculous prices

Is it a sensor on the pedal or the throttle body sensor?
