Title: Dump valve
Post by: Jamie_r on 31 October 2012, 00:07

Hi all,

Had my car for a couple of weeks now and when driving the other day the noise from the turbo increased and then when releasing the accelerator you can hear the dump valve. This was not happening previously and has been happening ever since.

What could be causing the system to start dumping the air?

Cheers,

Jamie

check the vacuum pipe that comes out the top of it. if its a standard diverter valve then it sounds like it's popped the seal and needs replacing
