Hi guy,
My is12 in my golf 7 s the turbo actuator rod rattles all the time on slow driving like 60-70% of the time. mostly rattles when in higher gear when engine has to push a little on slow speeds. If it annoys me to much I just give it more gas to have higher rpm or put it sports mode which makes it completely go away. So i got to thinking on how make it less audible or complete go away (knock on the wood) on the cheap without breaking anything. I have some Super Lube 91003 Silicone High-Dielectric and Vacuum Grease laying around if i was to apply that on the lose joint should probably make it less rattle with movement restriction. I cannot afford a new turbo just make the noise go away. Also thought of using cloth electrical tape automotive but that would potentially make it get stuck and restrict the movement.
Just want some thought on this i am crazy of thinking the super lube might just work
sorry for the long post I appreciate your help
