I would think if the wg was stuck closed you should be building enormous pounds of boost. But it might not show up as surging. In theory as you overboost the computer in the car should try and shut that down which I would think would present as a open and closing of the BOV as it try’s to regulate. But that isn’t your issue as described. Others have described this thing though most unfortunately end up with a diagnosis of turbo replacement.
Though I think some have wastegates that are external. So that should be replaceable. But some are built into the turbo so I am unsure if that is repair or just replace.
The best diagnosis from a Internet forum level is a recording of the sound of what’s happening. I doubt it would help me, as I would need to know what I’m listening to, but it could be easily passed along to other forums I’m a member of.
