Just had my wastegate fix done under warranty! Free

Seems to be 90% better still not completely gone! But not obvious any more

When others got it fixed did the sound completely disappear? Or just get quieter?

I just got the part from vw and he said he don't think it will fit as I have a different turbo. My turbo is the standard ko4 and I have a 2010 scirocco R, does the R use the same clip as the GT? I tried fitting it today and there was no way I could get it on , my wastegate rod look different to the one in the YouTube vid

The wastegate rattle is on acceleration only, around 2-2,500 rpm, particularly in high gears. It's not terminal, just bloody irritating. It doesn't sound like your issue if you're getting it on decel.
