Default K04 OE Wastegate Actuator Question

CP-e thinks my WGA is toast after the rebuild. I guess I am getting boost creep. Does anyone know if Mazda sells just the WGA for the K04? I searched through the forums and only found aftermarket ones like Forge and Turbosmart. I have an inquiry to a Mazda dealership if they just sell the WGA. So far only as a complete K04 unit. Thanks in advance.

I am sure you can find a used turbo for really cheap. What are the symptoms - post a log.

There's almost always a serviceable k04 for sale, or a BNRS3 for about the same price as a new OEM.

Sorry, CP-e is dyno tuning my car and Sander has not given me the logs. I also need a new knock sensor. The car is still with CP-e. Just hoping someone sells a new WGA separate from the K04. Thanks for the replys, I will also look for a used one.I do have a used Forge WGA with a green spring that we can use as a last resort.

Wow. a blast from the past. LOL!!! No I didn't. Found out that I had a small leak in my vacuum line that caused erratic behavior. So I am on the OE Wastegate solenoid and OE WGA. I have a used Forge WGA sitting in my garage and Grimmspeed WGA solenoid unplugged in the engine bay. Everything is working great.
