thanks for all the help
Do you mean wastegate itself or the wastegate actuator. To test the wastegate isn't stuck open just remove the rod from the turbine housing and ensure it moves freely.

To test if it's your BCS thats dud and not the actuator, bypass the bcs with a MBC, adjust the MBC as necessary and see if you still have the same problem.

If the problem goes, it's the BCS, if it doesn't it's the actuator. Be careful if you use a MBC and start at the lowest setting.
