Note: I've merged your two threads together to avoid confusion.
Does it have an electrovalve on the turbo that looks like #5 below. P0034 might relate to a fault in the turbo discharge electrovalve and one result is possibly disabling the turbo regulation electrovalve, which I think is what you are reporting. Your DIY efforts might focus on load testing the battery, checking for any damage or corrosion in the wiring and looking for any vacuum leaks, disconnected hoses.
P0245 relates to the turbo regulation electrovalve.
P0444 would relate to the carbon canister purge valve.
It would also be worth checking the pivot for the turbo wastegate for excessive wear - refer the red arrow.

It comes back to the first problem. The canister valve (P0444) and the turbo wastegate solenoid (P0245) have both been flagged again for electrical open circuit. Both are found in the same area.
I think you also need to get under the car with a torch or behind it with a mirror and look for something loose or unconnected, possibly related to the injector job. It is hard to see what goes on in that congested area under the plastic. (Starter removed in this wrecker's pic)

thank u kindly but i got the car few months ago and had engine light from on from then and did have that idoling issues from then i am thinking do i just buy new genuine turbo boost valve and carbon valve i seen on net to read with multi meter for the turbo solenoid should read like 38omhs but mine only read like 8 from memory ,thank u if u can give advice for me please
Whistling? Vacuum leak from a split or disconnected hose? The large air hose at bottom right of the image I posted may be split somewhere. That is common. Or the noise may be coming from a failed diaphragm inside the engine / rocker cover. There are other threads on that possible problem. The turbo itself on this engine lasts very well (even if the wastegate lets it down), but it needs proper lubrication and so it's important to change the oil on time and use the correct type. You might want to check that too.
and by the way i had to do head gasket and lukily by friend did tdc marks with whiteout on cams and had number one piston up top because locking cams with tool was not going make the motor work and the pin went straight in from rear of motor when i starting putting motor back together because i purchased the locking tool after i took head off .
oh ok thanks i suss that out ,thx
Dumpster fire
no such hose on my turbo like that
mine is water cooled
oh sorry yes that hose is new
Yes, the turbo coolant pipes are not shown in the previous diagram as that's only for the turbo and the lubrication. The cooling pipes at the turbo would look something like the diagram below (#8 and #10), but that's not likely to be relevant to your complaint.
david i tested the carbon valve it opens up to the hose that goes to inlet manifold but that hose that goes to the pipe near the turbo will u know what that is for please,thanks
