Thanks for the reply. I haven't checked the actuator arm specifically. I tried to visually inspect around the turbo area (without ripping everything apart), but it's hard to see much. Is there an easy way to get to it without a major disassembly?

Accessing the actuator arm is quite difficult without proper tools and some mechanical aptitude. Given the symptoms you described, the fault code, and your admitted lack of direct inspection, I would advise taking your vehicle to a reputable workshop for diagnosis and repair.

Okay, thanks for confirming, I was hoping to avoid that. Turns out you were right, it was the electrical bypass valve and it was defective as suspected. The workshop confirmed the same fault code. Repair cost me about 250€. Cheers!

I've experienced similar issues with my Ikon. Have you checked the actuator arm for free movement? Sometimes they can get stuck or become partially seized.
