Which risk increases when a turbocharger's wastegate actuator malfunctions in a diesel engine?

💡 Explanation

When the wastegate actuator fails, the wastegate can't vent excess exhaust gas, causing uncontrolled boost pressure spikes because the turbocharger spins excessively. Therefore, boost spikes result, not fuel inefficiency, increased PM, or oil degradation, which are linked to separate combustion or lubrication issues.
