Fiat Talento Engine Power Loss

I've got a 2018 Fiat Talento with a gasoline engine and I'm experiencing some issues. The check engine light popped up recently, and the engine feels noticeably weaker. Acceleration is sluggish, and I'm hearing a weird whistling and hissing noise when I try to accelerate. Sometimes, it even stalls when idling, and I've noticed my fuel consumption has gone up. My local mechanic thinks it could be a faulty boost pressure actuator. Has anyone else had similar problems?

Sounds familiar! I had a similar experience with my old Peugeot 308. Same symptoms: check engine light, power loss, and that tell-tale whistling sound. In my case, it turned out to be something related to the turbo wastegate control. Was your mechanic talking about the turbo actuator?

Yeah, he mentioned the turbo actuator and the electrical bypass valve. Is that the same as the wastegate control you're talking about? He mentioned something about pressure sensors too. Were you getting any weird readings?

Ah, right, turbo actuator! It's been a while. I just remember the mechanic saying it was affecting the boost pressure. Honestly, I didn't get too deep into the specifics. I just took it to a workshop. Probably best to get it checked out properly. Cost me around 250€ to fix.

Okay, thanks for the insight! It's reassuring to know someone else has experienced something similar. I'll take it to the workshop and mention the actuator issue. Hopefully, it's a straightforward fix like yours. Thanks again!
