135I Wastegate Rattle.

TM87V
in BMW 1 Series Forum

Featured Replies

Hi, wondering if anyone has experienced the dreaded Wastegate rattle? Mines started to do it (2009 135i) although it's only done 35,000miles. Have had it looked at by Birds BMW where I bought the car and have been told its normal, I find that a bit hard to believe on what was new a £40k car. Anyone know of any permanent, non bodge fixes? Any help much appreciated.

Cheers

    Hi Chris I had a 335 with same problem and it had covered only 26k, the turbos are made by Mitsubishi and are a bit naff, loads of stuff on Bimmerforums about this, contact Adam at Turbo Development and Engineering 0208 560392 he keeps them on the shelve and does an exchange policy, £600 I think I was plus my old turbos.

    Regards
