Default wastegate problems/questions...

Since I have had the front clip off this weekend, doing the TB R&R, I have been able to address other issues.

I able better able to access the wastegate acuator rod. How much force should I use to "wiggle it" to check for movement/slash play.

Default Im curious about this also, and...

Ertman, I'm curious about what TB R&R is. And whats a front clip? Also, what "other issues" are you talking about. Im wondering becuase I want to know what other guys do to maintain their cars.

Thanks bro

2 quick Q's: is it hard to change fuel filter on B5? I saw tech article but Im just wondering. 187k, thats pretty good. Do you have any other maint. advice for me? Other than the normal stuff.

Thanks again.

Default R&R = remove and re-fit, remove and replace, remove and repair TB = Timing Belt

Fuel filter for quattro is not that bad, just hard to get to.
