Peugeot 5008 engine power loss hissing noise

I'm having a weird issue with my 2010 Peugeot 5008 gasoline engine. The check engine light comes on and off, engine power is down, and the response is sluggish. I hear a whistling noise that turns into a loud hiss when I accelerate. Sometimes the engine stalls when idling, and I'm burning way more fuel. The car has 233846 km on it. Could this be the turbo wastegate or the boost pressure sensor?

A 2010 Peugeot 5008 is experiencing engine power loss, sluggish response, increased fuel consumption, and a whistling noise that turns into a loud hiss during acceleration. These symptoms suggest a problem with the boost pressure control system, possibly involving the turbo wastegate or boost pressure sensor. The issue was identified as a defective electrical bypass valve, which was replaced to resolve the problem.

Those symptoms point to a problem with the boost pressure control system. Has it had any maintenance or diagnostics recently? Have you checked the electrical bypass valve for damage?

Thanks. I haven't done any turbo system maintenance or diagnostics recently. What should I look for when checking the electrical bypass valve?

Without diagnostic codes, it's hard to be sure, but a defective electrical bypass valve seems likely given the symptoms. I'd recommend a workshop visit. A bad electrical bypass valve can cause those issues and repair isn't normally that expensive.

Thanks for the advice. I booked an appointment and it was the valve. Cost around 250€ to replace.
