    • cel light on for p006f,p2bac,p003a did component test and found the TURBOCHARGER ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY was out of spec during pin point test. Testing led to replacement of turbocharger VGT actuator, suspect VGT failure caused driveability and emission codes as engine braking was inop prior to replacement as well as exhaust emissions system was subjected to improper / bias input readings.
    • Drain cooling system, R&R passengers fender skirt for access. Remove turbo VGT actuator assembly and perform calibration test, failed. Replace faulty VGt actuator, refill cooling system & top off, perform calibration procedure & clear codes. Road test & retest, all ok. Codes no longer present.
