I had the same problem with my E320 cdi Mercedes. The actuator went faulty sometimes it would boost the turbo and sometimes I got no boost, which was quite dangerous as you never knew if you would get full boost or nothing. It would sometimes put the car into limp, which was another pain. I sent the actuator away for reconditioning and that worked for a year or so, then it failed again. As the actuator was under a lifetime warranty I had it repaired again. The second repair lasted a similar time to the first, and started to act up again. I contacted the company yet again but this time got no response. I have now purchased a new chinese unit and was not expecting much. I was wrong, the car has been brilliant, once the gearbox had done a relearn (it was not happy with full boost) I have watch videos on youtube saying the chinese units are junk, I think not. The Merc unit is much better located the Land Rover unit you fitted. That was not easy. Great Job.

👍 nice to know as ive not had any trouble with them on the mercs! we've done a lot on the ford 2.2s .. ive noticed quite a lot of turbos with them on now, seen them on quite a few mercs just never had a faulty one yet.. we've had quite a few of the cheaper £50ish Chinese ones that we fitted on the transits and they've all been spot on tbf.. a lot cheaper and easier than replacing the whole turbo! 👌

I have the same problem. The workshop is asking me to change the turbo which will cost 3000 GBP minimum. Thanks a ton for your video. Will take my car and see if this part change solves the issue at a fraction of the cost they are quoting. 🙏🙏🙏

Hi so got the actuator back and they tested it and said it was all good. Said it could be a build up of carbon in the turbo. Suggested refit actuator, add Forte turbo cleaner , reset fault codes and give car a good run and this should clear it. What do you think ? Thanks

Hi guys, hope you’re well. Great video on replacing the actuator. Just curiosity… if u wanted to replace turbo and actuator as an assembly is there access to remove the 3 bolts holding turbo to manifold? Or would you remove manifold complete with turbo and swap turbo on the bench? Cheers guys, great vid!!! 👍👍👍

@diydaly

Thanks! I’m not 100% sure but I think you can remove it without the complete manifold

Great video, thanks. Many mechanics seem to be adamant that you can’t do this due to the mapping issue. Did you have a reason why you suspected that it wasn’t true?

👍 just that we've fitted quite a few now without any trouble.. it is obviously better to fit complete with a new turbo but obviously a lot more expensive! we've fitted a few now that have still been going strong for 2+ Years

This is a great video; thanks. After my car went into limp home mode and showed two of the codes mentioned, I removed the connector, cleaned the contacts and reset the codes. The car is running again but I've ordered a new actuator anyway. Do you know if it's possible to buy the orange latch that was unlocked in the video before removing the connector? This was missing on mine.

Hi I've got probleme land rover évoque 2.2 diesel I've replace it and p2263-21 comes back when I hit the pedal full I've changed the turbo because I find it broken the p code comes then I changed the turbo actuator and the same probleme I've checked for any leaks there is no air leaks and the egr is canceled. Boost pressure cleaned, and it's the same probleme p2263-21 when I drive it hard it comes up note when I read the value of the actuator it's higher than the calculateur by %4 is it the probleme and u know the is no méthode for putting it its standard just replace it erase code and drive plz help....

Hi my old man has a discovery sport 2.2 with fault codes p0047, p0046, p259e. It was running fine then went into limp mode with these codes. So my question is can I remove the actuator and send it away to have it fixed? I have a place that solely does these. Once it’s fixed is it just a case of refitting it and clearing fault codes ? And also are they in a similar position to the freelander ? Thanks for your help.

Yes you can do that 👍 I’ve had to do the same before

Have Reduced Engine Performance and no turbo boost intermittent on 2009 Auto Freelander 2. Does this have the same actuator? Maybe crank position sensor would give the same fault?

@diydaly

yeah it should have, you need to get the fault codes read , if its got some relating to the the actuator its more than likely the fault 👍 .. crank position sensor wouldn't usually cause it to not boost

hi, my Freelander has the same problem, i was told the new actuator needs to be coded to the turbo, if so how is this done,

@diydaly

4 ай бұрын

Not codes as such , there is a basic calibration that can be done via a diagnostic machine but u may find it works ok

I've got the P0299 reduced engine performance but no engine management light. Cleaned the MAP and MAF sensor which I think solved it for a short period but it's come back. The turbo works if I clear the faults but will always come back. I wonder if I replace the actuator if this will resolve the issue.

@@fitimismaili5910 Wow. What a rabbit hole I went down with this car. Had this problem since January. I replaced all boost hoses (no leaks on original), new intercooler, turbo rebuild (as per garage's suggestion). I've had a new turbo actuator put on but it wasn't programmed to the Freelander - generic Chinese actuator. Looks to be that my old actuator was broken, the Chinese replacement wasn't coded. Just received a new actuator that has been programmed to the car. will hopefully install later today if I get time. the last mechanic I took it to on Saturday said that the Chinese one "works" but isn't sending the right signal back to the ECU (If I remember, he said the ECU is expecting 6v but the actuator is only sending 2.4v or something like that). Bought a new one pre-programmed as the garage I was recommended to wanted me to take my turbo off the car myself and I just don't have the space to do that. I'll let you know how I get on.

Hi, I've got a freelander 2011 2.2 Diesel, auto. I'm getting just the code P2263, would this be the actuator or do you recommend looking at other possible causes first? Appreciate your help, regards
