Re: [diesel_mercedes] Turbo Boost Adjustment

 

Nate,

I look forward to hearing what you find with your turbo.

The adjustment bolt is the bolt in the center of the diaphragm in the wastegate. Follow the directions in the article I sent 1st.

THANK YOU ! .

Those two videos are very informative although the exact method of _how_ to adjust the boost pressure isn't included .

I also found this Kent video that's very helpful : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36CvnGHvLvE

I have a couple other things to test yet but now I have an ever increasing store of knowledge to pull from and I'll get this sorted out ~ so many bodge repairs were done to my poor old Coupe before I got it and I'm still learning the basic thing that should, nee, must be checked, yested and adjusted before making any other changes .

My car came with the wastegate hose disconnected and plugged, I wondered why and when I rebuilt the turbo some time back I wondered about the waste gate proper but didn't know how to test / service / adjust it, maybe now is the time .

ALL here who like to tinker should go watch these three short videos, I'm sure in the near future I'll be posting what I've learned about basic trouble shooting .
