Bad wastegate?

Car goes into limp mode on start up. It displays drivetrain malfunction and showed these codes..could it be the wastegate or wastegate actuator?

Could it be? Yes. Do we know for sure? No.

You can probably check the wastegate acturator/arm and see if its stock or there is something blocking it. I recall seeing a incorrectly positioned upper Vband blocking it.
