thanks for the info, seems like this wastegate nonsense is pretty prevalent which raises a question of why the heck aren't they doing something. to have that if that's what it is at just over 7k or just under (dont remember) is pretty sad, the only saviour in this is that it goes away after a few seconds after starting the car.
