Noticed at Revo today have the following Fault found on vagcom -
000665 - Boost Pressure Regulation: Control Range Not Reached
Sounds like split DV valves from here - http://forums.fourtitude.com/zerothread?id=3366758&page=1
Just wondering if anyone else has had the fault and how easy a new DV is to fit,
Any help would be great,
Rob

Rob-MK5 i had this fault on my car when i went to get Revo and 3 weeks before had a forge d.v fitted so it was'nt a split d.v,just trying to find time to book it into VW to get it looked at.
-
Hmm im hoping its the DV for me as will hopefully just be a swap over to solve the problem,
other than that i think best to presure check to mke sure no leaks,
I thought mine was running well, ive not put Revo on yet ( have Select ) as want to get this resolved first,
-
Stevie how is yours running?

Stevie how is yours running?
Mine's running fine and had the d.v checked its ok, but have to get the fault sorted before revo goes back on.
-
Did you get the fault cleared, if not it could have been an existing fault from before you had the forge DV fitted, i.e. your original DV was goosed, so it could be a stored fault code.

Well here it is -

Plugged select in after and wow!! Traction/wheel spin 2nd on sunny dry roads,
Very happy,
-
mate, how much did you pay for the new one and was it easy to remove the old one?
-
Curious to know as well, how easy to remove and check? I've got the feeling I've lost a few horses as well.
-
Its was £28 + well worth checking as its a supposed to be a common fault,
You will need to car ideally on a ramp and remove the undertray bit of a fiddley job,
-
arent the DV's on edition 30's on the front of the engine ?, anyone got a pic of the ed30 one (i.e location)
-
Yes, front right as your looking at it.

What is this part then... I can see on the box it says 'valve'... Is this a DV
Like some of the others I feel my isn't performing the way it should and the average MPG (2 on the info / diplay just seems to be going lower and lower.
For the fist 2 years the display was always around 25ish MPG, but now it's about 21 / 22 ish and I feel that the power isn't there...
HELP....

which bit is the DV then ? (is it part maked solenoid ! )
-
Sure is.
-
Not heard of any ED30 ones failing yet, could be down to the fact its not mounted directly on the turbo in the 'hot zone' :evil:
-
my piping split on my dv and was looing 8psi boost and only ran 200 bhp. my mpg had gone down to 20. went to awesome and re-mounted the solenoid and changed the pipes and the power was there instantly.
anybody who is worrying about this should get it checked,
i had mine checked by VW and they said it was fine, 2 weeks later i had it checked at awesome and the mechanic couldnt believe that the VW garage could have missed this.
:smiley:

Is a split DV always (or usually) visible through VAG-COM fault messages?
My car was in for service at the dealership, they left a copy of the diagnostics test. Apart from some faults relating to swapping over the RCD300 to the MFD2 ans subsequently RNS510, there were no faults reported.
This was diagnostics done with the dealer VAS system, not VAG-COM of course.
-
Im not sure if always comes up on vagcom,
My car was at VW 6 days before and they said no faults hmm,
At Revo the fault came up and we went for a drive with vagcom hooked up and
he could tell the car was not holding boost.
I was so happy to find the rip in DV, the car was instantly better even before putting the select in.
I think give away signs are hearing the boost leaking,\i have also noticed since i can hear the
DV noise as you come off power,
Hope this helps

Your better changing the vw d.v for a forge one, more reliable and holds boost longer. :smiley:
-
Sure is.
cheers, is there a fitting guide for the ed30 version
