Why is my Ford Kuga's turbo not working properly?

I've noticed that my Ford Kuga's turbo seems to be struggling and not performing as well as it used to. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?

It could be due to a build-up of carbon deposits on the turbocharger. Regularly cleaning or replacing the air filter can help prevent this issue.

Another potential cause could be a faulty wastegate valve, which controls the amount of pressure in the turbo. This can be replaced by a professional mechanic.
