Great video. You saved me a fortune. Replacing the failed actuator as well as replacing the compromised upper (green) and lower (black) "O" rings on the long silver turbo outlet pile solved my GL320 CDI P0299 issues. ~$120 in parts + 30min DIY labor. Happy to donate a couple $$ to your channel!

Hi there again. The coin tray in my 2007 ML 320CDI is faulty. It shoots out every time I hit a bump on the road, irrespective how small the bump. I don’t know how to check.Do I remove the whole centre console? Is this a common problem? Regards

Intake pressure is for the suction side of the turbo and is a measurement of atmospheric pressure. Boost is after the turbo to the engine measuring boost pressure so intake pressure should be 950 mbar approximately and boost pressure should be more depending on spec

I would just like to thank you for this seriously helpful video, my W164 ML320CDI developed a turbo actuator fault, and with the info in this video I was able to test, remove and replace the actuator very easily, with little more than a Bluetooth scanner, voltmeter and socket set. Unfortunately the T-shaped intake duct fell apart in the process so will be replacing that too but your video was instrumental in the fault finding process. Thanks again! P.S. One thing I would add, is that getting the 4x M6 bolts out of the back of the actuator is a pain, as is replacing them, and it's very easy to lose them. A few of mine dropped down requiring me to drop the underbody protection panel. Loosening the turbo heat shield helps a little but it is still awkward. A cleverly placed magnet would probably be a good idea if I did the job again.

You did a through troubleshooting job. Before taking the actuator off, I will check the wiring of the turbo boost solenoid and actuator first like you did. Right now, I am thinking it is going to be a problem getting the right parts but will be surfing next. I am amazed on how easy you made it look at getting those three bolts out as I know where they are at. Thanks a lot!

Hello, thank you for the excellent video. I have the dreaded lightning bolt with 0299 code, I just tried your test and sure enough the motor is not responding.

I have b+ to red b- to brown and b- as intermittent signal on green - no response. Thanks K

[@djw6850]

FYI, I pulled the cover and put power directly to the motor terminals that connect via the circuit card - the motor worked. Assuming you test method is valid, this would mean there's a fault with the circuit card - the soldered jumpers on the circuit card are secure and don't appear to be a problem.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Francisco Márquez To actuate the actuator manually you have to to send power and ground to it then send ground on the signal wire if the lever doesn't move than your actuator is defective, follow the steps in the video!

Great video. I am having same problems with my car (Merc W211 E280 CDI) but actuator seems fine (took out and checked wiring), and the part is only 2 years old. Did you check the electrical parts of the one you removed? I wonder whether the problem is the motor to the swirl flaps being damaged due to oil leakage via Turbo air intake gasket. I have removed the intake pipe (from both air filters) and cleaned gasket and area all around the turbo inlet. Have you heard of the 4.7k ohm resistor trick to bypass the swirl flaps motor sensor telling the ECU that the motor is fine? Could this cause longer term damage?

Totally baffled. Any thoughts?

@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair I took EGR valve off again and cleaned it again, this time with the valve pushed open with a screwdriver. I also checked the continuity and voltage of back pressure and EGR valve sensors (all good). What I did notice when turning ignition on (not starting) was a rather strange sound from turbo actuator. I gently nudged the actuator arm, as maybe slightly in wrong position or sticking, then, when ignition started, actuator kicked into action. Cleared fault codes. Took it for a test drive. and although it was jumpy when accelerating hard, a horrible cloud of thick exhaust came out, cleared its throat and then was accelerating fine above 3000 rpm, tested for about 15 mins with normal, hard and kick-down acceleration. No jumping, through gears fine, appears fixed!! Not sure what actually did it but fingers crossed fixed now.

Nice diag bro! Is there a bi-directional command to the actuator in "active" mode? (I'm using autel)

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Sakeenah Auto Solutions , my Scanner didn't have a bi-directional command for the turbo actuator, I haven't used an Autel Scanner yet and depending on what model you have, but I think you might be able to turn it on and off with it if it can allow you, or you can test it manually like I did...

[@Usmanthemecano]

@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair mine did not either. I tried manual testing it but it was barely moving. So I opened up the shell. The motor and logic board are separate. Power and ground to the motor works. So I guess in my case the logic board is at fault. The "signal wire" seems to just change the polarity allowing the motor to turn left or right because manually by switching powers and ground directly to the motor would do just that. So we've ordered the Amazon actuator to see if it'll fix it

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@@Usmanthemecano it's impressive how far you've gone with testing the actuator... I got mine on Amazon too, so you should be good after replacing it

[@MrBrad1389]

Did you need to use the G code inscribed on the housing of the actuator to match the part you bought or how were you able to find the correct replacement from amazon?

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Brad atkinson I just tapped the year, make and model of the car then it came up, it looked the same... I ordered it and all was well...

Yo K I have a 2014 gl 450 and when I hit bumps in the road it feels like I have no shocks almost like suspension is no good but everything raises up with np and stays up any thoughts

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

sounds like a weak compressor or leaking valve... you have a pro look at it for you

[@TheBIGKNOC]

@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair thanks for the response yeah I was hoping it wasn't going to be the compressor again just replaced a compressor on my 2011 jeep overland that was 1300 wow so let me ask even it raises up and down it's still can be no good correct

[@Hibachipower]

What about the over boost?? What is most cost to over boost??

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

大黄蜂 Bumblebee overboost can be caused by a couple of things, stuck vanes in the turbo, stuck actuator , defective boost pressure sensor etc...

Rafiek Ahmed if the wiring is good and the sensor and the tubes but the problem is still there you should reset the computer and see what happens, do you have a scan tool that can do that?
