Cause: Oil/moisture condensate freezing up in Turbocharger Wastegate Regulator Solenoid Valve (TCV). Correction 1. Remove Turbocharger Wastegate Regulator Solenoid Valve 2. Drain Turbocharger Wastegate Regulator Solenoid Valve (TCV) by turning valve upside down. 3. Using clean shop air regulated to 15-20 PSI (103kPa), blow through all three ports (1, 2 &3) for 5 seconds each. Repeat twice. Note: Check port #2 to assure the spring gets lifted off the seat. This will be determined by the compressed air not dead-heading when applied to port #2. When applying air to this port a small amount of air should be observed at port #3 and even less air will be noticed at port #1. If this does not happen, the TCV plunger may have hardened deposits from hot operating conditions which will impede TCV plunger movement and the Turbocharger Wastegate Regulator Solenoid Valve should be replaced. 4. Reinstall Turbocharger Wastegate Solenoid Valve (TCV) using the latest service information and clear all DTC's using GDS and evaluate.
