Hello all. I just obtained an AAZ with a K03 for my coupe, and for the last few weeks I've been dissembling and cleaning/painting. During one of my poking around at things check over, I have found that the wastegate on the turbo is seized in the closed position. I removed the actuator rod from the external wastegate arm to rule that out. The wastegate itself is siezed. I have been soaking it in penetrating oil for a few days now and today I tried some heat to no avail. So my question is, has anyone gotten one of these freed up before? If so, how did you do it? I'm going to take a wild guess that if I can't get this freed up I'm going to be in the market for another turbo? Thanks guys!!
