Vauxhall Insignia 4x4 2.0 petrol turbo.
So, I've had a problem with my turbo for a few weeks. When I start the car and drive off the turbo works fine for a couple of gear changes but then stops working until the car is switched off. When i use use a fault reader it says "wastegate Solenoid". So I changed the solenoid and cleared the fault codes, but the problem is still there with the same fault code returning. The vacuum hoses and boost pipe are all fine and the turbo its self seems mechanically sound. One mechanic has said it may need to go back to Vauxhall main dealer to get the ECU updated. Does this sound right? Sounds expensive! Is there anything else you fine fellows can think of?
Thank you
