It may be just the wastegate diaphram that needs replacing, as there isn't much to go wrong with the turbo. As long as it spins freely and no graunchy noises it's fine.
The Turbo is a CT20, if you're searching for spares.
TonyN may have one other than that, there's usually some on Ebay.


Also, check the rubber pipe (the red one in the diagram) is attatched and not come off or split before condeming the turbo diaphram.

It's just the wastegate part you need then, as there is a spring and a diaphram in there. Either the diaphram is split or the acuator spring is really weak they control the boost pressure the turbo creates.
You can get a second hand turbo for around 80 quid.

is it easyier to get the parts or to get a whole new turbo and is your shop the 4x4 toys and do you supply them second hand, were i live not many good breakers about and do i need any gaskets if i get a new turbo

Not in the wastegate itself. The wastegate actuator has these bits. Sometimes the wastegate housing or wastegate itself can crack. This is where the rod from actuator connects to.
