Why not buy a refurbed exchange actuator form TurboVanes, get your garage to swap over (I did mine in less than 30 mins), make sure you get the old one back so you send it to TurboVanes to get your deposit back. That you avoid the garage trying to do any 'diagnostics' on the issue.Thanks again Supernoodle really helpful - definitely "hesitation and surging" is a much better description of what I am experiencing - as mentioned only between 1000 - 2000 revs... so the actuator looks to be the most likely culprit - not sure if I am brave enough to try to swap the actuator out so I guess a reluctant trip to my garage for a more detailed look is the way to go... though they will probably tell me it's a new turbo...
I did have a DPF fault before - the garage removed it and cleaned it and it seemed to be fine. Clearly there is something else going on which caused that DPF fault initially - so I hope that by not dealing with the root cause they haven't screwed up the DPF again as they are expensive...
