Did some research and seems like this clip will not work on the KO3 Turbos(as per etuners)

im lost as this sound is really annoying im not trying to gain any more or pre boast just for this noise to go away on decelerating only

im getting conflicting solutions from VWVortex stating that adjusting the actuator arm to remove the excess play without adding any preload
and some threads on this forum stating that i should not think of adjusting the rod due to possible limp issues

https://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread. ... tion/page2 - Stating it can be done

viewtopic.php?t=152417 - Wastegate spring mod stating not to adjust the rod

what can i do?

My Car that i'm driving: 2013 VW POLO GTI 1.4TSI DSG.

Hi My car was running smooth and all of a sudden engine came on and next day my when i drive the car engine light was blinking again and its was cutting when i go above 2500rpm then i tried to accelerate more and EPC and EGINE lights came on and had to cancel the trip. i stopped just few houses to my house and when i check on engine the was a smoke smelling like oil its burning of some exhaust. i went back when i start it reflected OIL SENSOR warning on my dashboard then i check my oil and it was okay then drive after short distance it went off it self then never wanna start it was difficult to start, then had to push it so Can someone refer me a VW specialist around JHB South.
