Lesmartin Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Hi has anyone ever removed one of these as I am struggling to find what size nuts are holding it on as 10mm seems to big and 3/8 is to small Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 There wasn't a 1.9 Galaxy in 2008. If it's a 2.0 TDCI, the actuator is held on with Torx screws. Not normal hex bolts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a vacuum actuator or electronic actuator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jibhaiyya89 Posted Friday at 05:19 AM Share Posted Friday at 05:19 AM A cheap thing to inspect is the exhaust gas pressure sensor and the sensing tube connected to the exhaust manifold. They can get plugged up with soot and cause low power issues. The engine computer uses this sensor to confirm VGT position, perform engine misfire diagnostics and EGR valve positioning (amongst others sensors as well). May be worth looking into before you replace the VGT actuator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
