Default But i dont think my Turbo is actually blown.....Read

I believe my problem is the wastgate acculator on the drivers side turbo
During spool up as i began to go into boost @ around 2000 rpm's i get a quick rattle
it only happens while im under load won't do it at any other time
beside sides the rattle at 2000rmp's the turbo sounds just fine and is not making any other noise
but my boost has been low most of the time
it will spike to 1 bar then stabalize at 11-12 psi as i climb rpms... sometime it will be a lil higher

Does this sound Right? any other people have problems with there wastegate acculator arm?
i was told since the wastegate is internal if any problems come along that the whole turbo would have to be replaced?
now most of u seem to of advise me on replacing both turbo's......should i still think about replacing both? how many hours of labor should i expect to pay for replacing both?

any suggestions on what i should do?
Vag?leak test? pay audi 80 bucks to diagnose?

Thanks alot

Default Pay Audi 80 bucks to diagnose. An accurate diagnosis is as good as gold. Expect 25+ hours to

replace turbos. Hopefully it won't come to that. I doesn't sound like bad turbos to me either.
