You say you have access to online service manual? Where?

What problem did you have here? Your turbo is gone?

My wastegate actuator went bad causing a big deposit of carbon on the turbo causing the turbine not to spin ,,,i just ordered a new wastegate and a ots valve solenoid cant wait to get items so i can post the fixxxxx
for all you guys

pm with your email so i can send you service manual

Are you sure that your problem is the wastegate? The heatshield between the turbine wheel and the turbo cartridge can distort and cause the turbo to drag. If the turbo drags it will pump oil out the exhaust and intake compression seals since the ceramic ball bearing turbos have no oil seals in them like a bushing turbo. Do not take your turbo apart by pulling the compressor wheel, we have not found anyone who is willing to rebalance them and they will destroy themselves at the 150K RPM they turn.

Question! where did you find a wastegate to replace that one? mines shot too but turbo is good and i cant find where to buy the WG. honda told me i need to get the whole turbo but that is stupid if thats not the issue. i dont get why they want you to pay 3100 for a turbo just when a 100 wg part went bad and they do go bad! please let me know thanks
