Front turbo wastegate washer adjustment Toronto

Has anyone in toronto/gta managed to fix their front wastegate rattle by adding washers to pull the actuator rod away further away so it takes out the extra slop & wear causing the rattle?

Looking to do this, but would rather go to someone who's done it before

So your looking to take the turbos down or you expect to get to the waste-gates with the turbos on the car ?

Hey guys. I’m down in Niagara and did the job myself a couple months ago in a couple hours and that was taking my time. Just use the cut out washer method and follow the instructions listed by waikiki35 in this thread:

Hey I was wondering if we could communicate together in regards to you doing this for me? I live in Toronto but would have no problem driving down and paying for your time to do both adjustments front and rear. I made an account on here specifically to message you. Cheers. Inbox me and I will communicate my cell to text. Thank you for your help.

Guys just read post I linked above, it really isn't that hard to do yourself. I used a magnetic pickup tool to slide the washers over the bolt so you don't have to remove it.

If all else fails just call up Ivo at Columbus Automotive Services - Ivo (416)882-1439...he used to be one of the great N54 shops in the GTA a few years back. Hopefully he is still in the game. He has done all the typical N54 jobs a 1000 times over. Great guy, fair prices....
