GTI Turbo stuttering and chirping noises..... (Rhyso has done me a fault read)

[Stronz]

Lol, I didn't even remember to request a colour, but got sent a blue one. Considering replacing a few other pipes now to match in and tidy the bay up a bit..

[Big Tone]

I have a black y shaped breather and a blue lower breather, because I made the same mistake of not requesting a colour.

Fancy swapping? only three months on the car

Hey guys which N75 valve should I get?

Ive seen N75 C, F and J!

this one is a C:

I'd start by replacing bits you know are faulty / have splits in

Worry about the N75 AFTER you've replace the breather hose.  That way you'll hopefully end up sending less on parts

You need to eliminate the known problems first 

[gerlewis]

good point, fancy doing me a code read once I have replaced the pipe? (i can come to you)

The only other thing is the chirping noise... which is why i was looking into n279 n75.

One step at a time though eh!

No probs - drop me a text when you've replace the hose    Perhaps try and do some proper data logging too

ok, Ive replaced the hose - cheers all for the heads up regarding the ebay silicone one!

(Ive also replaced the fuel filter due to a random leak!)

I still have the chirping noise (more of a fplfplfpflll - according to my wife) on gear change (and a slight whistle when accelerating), I am waiting on some second hand bits to arrive (n75 and recirc valve) - see if they make any difference.

recirc valve could well be dead, or a leak in another hose somewhere...

[gerlewis]

hopefully the bits will arrive tomorrow. I will keep you posted.

what was the exact fault code?

a faulty dv can throw throw false positives, particularly n249 related fault codes. I wouldn't even touch the N75 until the dv is checked/replaced as that is what will be causing the "sneezing pigeon" noise on gear changes.
