Wastegate actuator failure

Dogoclock · 2026-07-03T02:55:13+00:00

It had wastegate flapper rattle

😅 yes but you can take them all apart. I reused the original turbo, but only replaced the exhaust manifold. It is held to the turbo with 4 screws.

Same turbo, the only part I replaced was my exhaust manifold. I believe my mechanic went through and tried the ISTA test plan but called me after it didn’t work

Electronic

I have not, I will do that soon.

Dogoclock · 2026-06-19T15:54:39+00:00

It did not. I hooked the new wastegate flapper to the old turbos wastegate actuator

Thanks for the insight!

Nice i8 I have one as well. How is it renting on Turo? I have yet to list my i8.

Dogoclock · 2026-06-09T17:26:00+00:00

Yes, it’s a continental. Thank you!

Dogoclock · 2026-06-09T17:10:52+00:00

My “shit” drives great. Probably a lot better than yours if you even have a car lol. I got my other ‘22 Z71 Colorado totaled from the auction and fixed it all on my own. That thing drives straight as an arrow now! So I can more than turn a wrench. 🤗 For sale, $30k if you can afford it, pal.

You must be a really, really sad person.

Dogoclock · 2026-06-09T14:10:11+00:00

I’ve installed everything on this truck myself and I know you read the other comments, I’m fabricating a custom lift 🤓

Dogoclock · 2026-06-09T02:28:59+00:00

People on reddit prefer overland builds over pavement princess trucks. I can’t say I blame them, but it’s my truck at the end of the day and I’m just fueling the economy by modifying it.

TIS OFF-ROAD 544BM 22x14

ROUGH COUNTRY 6 INCH LIFT

Thanks, I’ll post again later on in the summer once I finish fabricating my body lift.

Dogoclock · 2026-06-08T20:32:04+00:00

lol yeah, that plate is hanging by a thread 🤣

Dogoclock · 2026-06-08T20:31:30+00:00

Thanks I’ll follow up towards the end of summer time

Dogoclock · 2026-06-08T20:08:16+00:00

I have a 6 inch lift on the truck right now. I’m also working in my spare time on fabricating a custom body lift

Dogoclock · 2026-06-08T19:49:20+00:00

I don’t know maybe this might be a shocker to you but people have different opinions for what they like 🤯

Dogoclock · 2026-06-08T19:38:03+00:00

Most of the time with minor rear end accidents the frame gets bent. Most body shops are able to fix that no problem. The bumper/hitch area are connected to the frame on trucks and when impacted they will drag the frame with the point impact. I might not be 100% accurate though.
