Search this forum and you will find a few threads about it (with the part number included).

You can buy the clip from the usual places: TPS, eBay, a dealer, etc.

Volkswagen don’t do the clip on its own now. They’re quoting £164 for the actuator and £95 to fit. The only part number I can find on the forums is 06J 145 220 A and that doesn’t seem to be compatible with sciroccos when looking on eBay. I’m at a bit of a loss, so if anyone can send a link to one they’ve bought where they know it fits then please let me know. It’s driving me crazy.

I thought the wastegate clip was only for the petrol 2 litre, I had the clip fitted to my car back in 2012. I may be wrong on that though.

Damn. I was hoping this was the answer to my prayers. The rattle noise I get when under acceleration is embarrassing. No garages can find it. Il need to keep looking :?

That would be correct, the 2.0TSi's. My previous Roc had one fitted under warranty.
