N75
« on: 28 May 2014, 22:08 »
Evening gents I think I need a new n75 valve I know there are loads of revisions but which is the one to go for?
Or is it beat to just go to VW and see what they suggest?

Thanks
Mike.

Vagcom error message when scanned and the wiring looks ok, it is holding back slightly and I mean slightly.

I went straight to VW for mine. About £50 IIRC

I read quite a lot about the race valve some are running but it came hand in hand with a few horror stories so I stuck to the original spec...no problems thus far!

Yeah I've read the horror stories about the race valves too. But just wondered if any ARZ owners had got a valve that was proven.

Yours was/ is an AUM isn't it Niño? So I assume that it might be a different valve?

They may well be the same tbf Nino, but figured the different turbo might mean different valve because of the different boost parameters. May be wrong tbf. I'll clear the codes the tomorrow go for a blast and see if they come back.
