The only way I could see to get my hands on the actuator was by removing the manifold and maybe even the EGR.
However, since I had no idea were the actuator was located, I may be wrong in identifying the small bit, that was visible,
as the actuator.
Tomorrow I shall be downloading Elsawin and hopefully this will help me in locating it.
By the way, was yours a 1.4TDi when you wiggled it with a spanner?
