Wastegate actuator is mounted on turbocharger. See Figure . On M/T models, apply pressure of 11 psi (.8 kg/cm2 ) to wastegate actuator. On A/T models, apply pressure of 10 psi (.7 kg/cm2 ) to wastegate actuator. On all models, ensure wastegate actuator rod moves. Replace wastegate actuator if rod does not move or actuator does not hold pressure.
