EPC light

I’ve thrown an EPC light with resultant limp mode twice this past week. Scanned the car this evening and have a ‘stuck actuator’ code. The fault frequency of 2 jives with the twice it has come up. The limp mode/Epc light went away after restart. Ignore my catalytic insufficiency, I’m running an awe DP with hjs high flow cat that I think is failing. Nevermind on that, that code doesn’t show on my screenshot.

I was afraid I fucked up my spark plug swap a few weeks ago, but seems I didn’t. What am I looking at here? Trip to a shop? I am out of warranty at this point. 2018 R. Anyone ever try to lube the wastegate?

Thanks all!


After some digging, looks like I'll be trying some PB blaster on pivot points where wastegate attaches to turbo and maybe some high temp anti sieze after?
