So there was a truck in the shop this weekend and came in with a check engine light on with a P2262 code. Dodge dealer told the owner it was going to cost $2800 to fix due to he needed a new turbo. During inspection of the turbo and its functions( after draining the coolant) and removing the actuator from the side of the turbo we noticed that the lever actuator would only move about half way between open and closed. I removed the turbo and dissembled it into the 3 main pieces exhaust housing - cartridge - boost housing. When separating the cartridge from the exhaust housing I had to use 2 pry bars to separate the 2 pieces after looking at the VGT slide part I realized that the reason it was not functioning was due to the fins being bent in.
So 2 questions-
1) has any one else had this type of problem?
2) If so did you have to order a whole new turbo or were you able to order parts for the turbo to have it repaired?

Oh and the truck only had 67000 miles on it.
