Thinking of doing my valve aswell would this one be okay ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Golf-MK5-GTI-Scirocco-2-0-TSI-Upgraded-Turbocharger-Diverter-Valve-06H145710C-/252248033385?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368
Not an upgrade, just an older revision, AFAIK. Current revision is G. Just get the GFB DV+ and get that issue done for good.

I like the sound the revision g makes. Although its a diaphragm and not the piston type design of the rev d (or is it C?), Nik at R-Tech prefers the G i read somewhere. I may be wrong.  I would listen to him as he's the expert.

Coolio! Because I'm buying the cam follower tomorrow and for the life of me can't get my head round how I'm gonna replace it  :scared:
You looked at my DIY vid? I don't have a Banjo style fitting, but if you figure out the easiest way to get at that...the rest is the same...


Here's another vid  that does show one with a Banjo bolt by Deutsche Auto Parts:


...I now have the stud kit for the hpfp because I had to replace the cam tension cover for having to replace the CF every 10k miles having the upgraded hpfp. If the hpfp is stock...you likely do not need to worry about the hpfp bolts stripping the threads in the tension cover.

Cheers mate. I literally came across your vid today. I also saw a vid by an American dude change the follower without undoing the banjo bolt. He simply removed the other bolts and then pulled the fuel pump to one side leaving the banjo bolt untouched.

I will...because I was skeptical this would work and I still have my fingers crossed  :drinking:
Let's hope it does but people have tried all types of these adaptors and they never seem to work and cell light pops up on the dash soon enough  :doh:
After installing my angled O2 last week...I went on a cruise Friday night and then a Poker Run on Sunday. Did much spirited driving on both days and still no fault codes or CEL(check engine light)/MIL.   :happy2:

Sounds good @ROH ECHT I'm surprised  :surprised: as my EML hasn't come on for two days now lol still waiting for it to crop up and make me panic again.

When I go for the remap I'll get them to map it out to be on the safe side. Thanks for the feedback  :drinking:

GUESS WHAT I GOT THUS MORNING ON THE WAY TO WORK FF* THE EML  :doh:
