apologies if this has been asked begore. I'm using my phone and can't find search.
just had my car serviced at Awrsone GTi smf it needs a new diverter valve. just wondering if I shpuld buy another stock valve from the dealers or upgrade yo the Forge DV.

Oem valve. What revision failed?
How has it failed...Split rubber?

not sure what revision it is mate, or 100% on how its failed. plastic clips maybe? apparently it's causing boosting issues (although the car seems to be driving fine).
to be honest I'm more tempted by the OEM valve just because of the price difference.
-
I would find out. Your age vehicle is likely a D (No diaphragm) or G (More likely).
Usually the rubber can split leaking boost which you may not perceive if it's a small tear but the ECU would detect an issue if the requested pressure differed from the actual pressure produced.
If it was diagnosed through a fault stored on the car then they should be able to tell you the code which is usually P0299.
I believe the Forge may need periodic greasing.
-
it probably has got a tear, forge one is recommended to be serviced at something like 5k, i've seen one seize before that
also the position is a PINTA to get to on the tsi unlike the K04 cars

Neil GTIs thread on the diverter valve.
-
thanks for the advice guys.
no error codes returned, just a leak spotted by the mechanic doing the service.
after looking in to it, gonna replace with the rev G and see how it holds up.

Shouldnt an 09 plate have a Rev G in it anyways?

When you say leak what do you meen?
Unless he took it out and inspected it to see it was split the only other way would be by sound.
If he said oil leak on the diverter valve thats something else. Have a look at my oil leak thread if thats the case as i originally thought it was diverter valve.
-
thanks mate, that's exactly what he said. he also said it might not be the diverter. you got a link to the thread?

just read through your thread mate, looks like mine has the same symptoms (oil on the main air feed pipe etc.)
you have a PM :)

Awesome are pretty decent guys, and it only take 5 mins to check. I bet he just whipped it out and saw a split. I thought my MK5 was fine till i got a new DV and then Wow...what a difference a new and working DV make.
Plus, Revo is a aggressive map, theres a good chance it has split it....

Also worth checking the valve while there on.

As I said in pms same as mine was.

This is 99% of what i gave the dealer to help diagnose and fix mine. :evil:
Symptoms
• Oil leak
• Induction type air leak whistle at certain revs.
Oil leak, maybe possible causes,
• Crankcase ventilation systems small pipe and air intake pipe seals leaking causing a pressure issue which causes oil vapour to condense back into oil. (known issue to VW that can cause this type of leak that makes it look like a turbo issue)
• Diverter valve diaphragm split causing the crankcase ventilation system to think there is pressure present.
• Crankcase ventilation system valve failure.
• Turbo charger oil seals failure.
OIL HERE --- Under the car on the join between the turbo and diverter valve. - 06F 145 710G - Oil seems to be running down onto this from the top of the engine from the crankcase breathers small pipe. It is then running down onto this location

OIL HERE --- Main air feed pipe join down the driver side of the engine bay. - 1K0 129 654 AP -
(http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b361/flogitg/Forum%20photos/IMAG0142-Copy.jpg)
OIL HERE --- Small pipes join were it is connected to the air feed pipe on the top of the engine. This seems to be the source of the leak. It is wet and dripping / leaking oil.

THE FIX
They replaced the large intake pipe that i quoted the part number of in the PM.
Think it was 1K0 129 654 AP
-
great write up and thanks again mate for the advice.
I'll update the thread once the parts are ordered and fitted.
-
just to revisit this thread, looks like I'm going to pick up the Pipercross upgrade to replace the OEM part on payday next week...
