My 308's turbo started whining and I'm not sure where to take it

So I've got a 2019 Peugeot 308 that I absolutely adore, it's been such a reliable daily driver and honestly it handles beautifully, but a couple of days ago I started noticing this high-pitched whining noise coming from the engine bay whenever I accelerate, and it seems to be getting louder each time I drive it. I'm pretty sure it's the turbocharger starting to fail because the car feels a bit sluggish too, like it's not boosting properly, and I'm honestly terrified of what the repair bill might look like if I leave it too long. The thing is, I've called a few places and they all say they can work on it, but I'm really skeptical because Peugeots have such specific electronic systems and engine layouts that a lot of general garages just don't have the right experience or diagnostic tools to properly sort them out. I've been asking around in some local groups and someone mentioned that finding a proper Peugeot repair authorized service center is really the way to go because they actually have access to the right software and technical bulletins for these cars, which makes a huge difference when you're dealing with turbo issues or anything related to the engine management system. Has anyone here had turbo problems with their Peugeot and actually found a place that did a proper job without charging crazy prices? I really don't want to make things worse by taking it to the wrong place, but I also can't afford to just keep driving it and risk the turbo completely failing on me.
