Turbo actuator arm grease

Hello all,
I think I have a sticky actuator arm.
Car will boost but then looses boost then picks up again.
I have checked all turbo hoses and all are fine.
Having searched I suspect it’s the actuator arm playing up.
The grease listed LR029042 is quite expensive.
Is there an alternative?
I want to be armed with the stuff before I go taking arm off a wiggling.
Cheers

Just track down the highest temperature grease you can find. You could maybe steal the spec of the Land Rover tin if offered on line.

Its a bit of a pig to reach on your back, I spray it well with easing/lubricating oil and then work it. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

So this should be ok?
Handy in a spray can too.

Couldn’t find specs but images of the tube you can just make out >200c on the genuine stuff and k2 says to 1400c

Arm and valve were moving freely.
Used grease anyway which for the money seemed really good.
