right.... i have my first symptom i think???? the car IMO has started to slightly under perform as isnt as pokey and feels like the boost has been turned down....
when the car was running and performing as it should, it used to make a slight 'hiss' from the standard dump valve when you let your foot off the accelerator when on boost which i think is normal? Now this 'hiss'/whistle happens throughout the hole time the car is boosting and under performing.

i am hoping this is a faulty dump valve on the mechanical side or a split hose somewhere????

Certainly worth having a look at the DV.

had the DV replaced today and found it was torn in 3 places in the rubber section...i had the standard vw DV fitted but the revised version. car seems better now. am hoping that when i go back to try the re-map again that the car makes the higher boost this time...

Cool. Let us know how it turns out.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Im just down the road from you in Hemel if you ever need anything too.
Would be interested to know who you've taken your car too as you're close by as well.

had the diverter valve done at a company in aylesbury called VAG Tune...there are very helpful and would use them again....they do all aspects from re-maps to mot to services and repairs....
