I'll jump on the seven year old wagon..its low mileage though
Been thinking about buying the vw wastegate clip. Expensive option but failure in this area is a zero tolerance idea.

40 bucks for a clip!?!?!? I'm in the wrong business! Spend 4 cents on some sheetmetal, bend it into a clip and sell for 1,000 times that. Thank goodness they use a little lube and offer free shipping!

listen 2012 n00b!! young wipper snapper. lol
Mine has yet to fail from back then. Also if the clip pops off you see little to no boost, so not the end of the world
till you replace it.

I stick a loop of safety wire in my twisty piers. I can reach under the intake and hook it over the peg and pull. I've never had a rod pop off doing it that way.

Damn that messed up yo! Haha! Been rolling TD's since 95.
For some reason in my head I keep thinking if that clip falls off you get full boost but you are correct. That sucker would be flapping in the breeze and no boost would happen.
I did see this DSM turbo with a clip that looked like a mini hitch pin but with another loop that fit over the wastegate rod. Would require drilling a hole in the rod but looked like it worked a charm. Now I cant find the link.
