Depends if you've got a KO3 (normal gti) or a KO4 (ed30)

I've read nothing more than G is the best dv to have fitted, happy to have one on my GTI, very easy to change (3 hex bolts) once you know were to locate your arms around the bottom of the car its pretty simple just fiddly lol, there is a few Rev G on eBay.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dump-valve-VW-Golf-VW-Jetta-1-4T-2-0T-06F-145-710G-/261526153668?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3ce42c69c4

My dealer told me the same thing. I bought one from http://www.germanautopartsdirect.co.uk/index.html for about £40.

Having changed/checked mine (KO3) by scrambling around underneath and by going in through side, I recon its much easier to remove the wheel, unscrew the wheel arch shield and there it is in front of you!
And when you have the shield off you can remove the accumulated mud and leaves from the wheel arch as well. A coat of waxoil on the exposed surfaces and all good for another year or 2.
I could do the job in 1/2 hr now I know where all the screws and fixings are.

Fitted mine today, WOW, what a difference!

I had a pencil sized hold in mine, but it is a completely different car now, best £40 I have spent in ages.

Was told by VW they only do the G now.

I am no mechanic by any means, its not hard, just fiddly being under the car with not huge room to work in, but ultimately its just 3 X5 mm allen key bolts and a clip. Practice on a clip in the engine bay before hand, makes it much easier under the car.

Those who haven't checked, do it, feels like it has 30BHP more than before
