Question about boost wackiness

My girlfriend's 85t has a group 6 apc and 3.0 bar fpr. Base boost is 3 psi and when you get on it the car boosts to about 10 psi then starts fluctuating between 7-11 psi. The bpv is relativley new and the apc solenoid passed the tests in the bentely manual. But the bentely test seems to only account for complete failure and that kind of boost flux seems like a result of a malfunctioning apc solenoid. My plan of attack would be to replace the apc solenoid and reset base boost to factory spec. My question is, should I check for anything else besides the apc solenoid? Also the wastegate actuator rod seem kind of stuck on the valve arm even though there is no clip to hold it on. What's the best was to loosen this up with out hurting anything and what should I do to secure the rod properly once the base boost is set.
Thanks in advance,
Chad
