Good morning. I have the same truck as yours. I’m having an issue where my actuator arm is jumping up involuntarily. Even when I’m parked at idle it’s jumping when I’m but hitting the gas. I lose power and air but not enough to drop more than 1-3 mph. Was this the same issue you were having?
@@valmaye2 so in this video I just replaced the actuator. I got the actuator from the dealership. I did replace the actually turbo later ( which was the problem to begin with) it was the regular OEM from the freightliner dealership. If you give them the last 6 of your vin they will be able to get you the correct turbo.
Hey man , i got the same truck same engine , i wanted to know what you do about the black smoke and sis you keep on driving . I got the same problem but im 1500 miles from home 😅i got power truck runs fine
@@terrelljackson708 yeah when you buy together with turbo it should be set, but if buying separately I wouldn’t try to adjust it. That’s if you’re trying to get it perfect

No mine was just leaking overall it ended up being the turbo itself. I’m still having power issues but not as bad. I just replaced my air to air because I was told that was the issue but that didn’t fix it
@@terrelljackson708 next time I had it at freightliner they said that it was within specs and didn’t need calibration. My problem ultimately was I needed a new turbo, which I had just replaced 7-8 months prior to posting this video.
Great video man. Like how you didn't throw in the towel when it got a little tuff 👍
Thanks that means. A lot to me.
