Forge DV maintenance??

[Little_Dave]

I've had my Forge DV fitted on my car since i had the stage 1 map put on my car but have seen talk of it needing to be serviced or maintained in some way  kinda thought it was a fit and forget part so does anybody know how often it needs to be serviced and what symptoms i should be looking for so i know if mine needs checking? is there an interval for it?

thanks

afaik there's no defined service interval but all it requires is to relube the piston to prevent it sticking with a hight temp fully synthetic grease.

Ah ok thanks for that  is there anyway of knowing its sticking and needs a relube? noises or loos of boost maybe?

If it's sticking you'll lose boost hence power although it may just be intermittent. It's easy enough to just unscrew the top to check (if you have an ed 30) but if you're going that far you might as well just relube it.

fwiw if you ask Forge nicely, they'll send you a service kit for free.
