flapper on exhaust maifold
Im making this post for a friend, he called me and asked me to. The details are a little bit Slim, so when he gets a chance he will update it.
but the question is... there is a flapper on the ehaust manifold, it looks kind of like a wastegate flapper, Where should it be going, should it be plugged up? he said it was just dangeling there.. The manifold is a s4 turbo manifold
thanks for your help in advance

Need more info. Is the manifold on the engine? Is the engine running? Is the flap still connected to its actuator? Is the actuator's vac line connected to a vac line? Are all the solenoids on top of the engine still in place? Have you looked this up in the FSM?
