GTI-Rog's Mk5 GTI "Rejuvenation" Thread (Pic Heavy)
Pesky jones:
Nice, wish my DV had been in your state opposed to the brand new rev g that I found in there :fighting: previous owner had fitted it and not told me. I had already bought a new one because I assumed it would be knackered as it's a ten year old car and no paperwork suggesting new one had been fitted... But the cars looking good rog!
MarkyN:
Where did you get the Rev G from? Mines 10 year old DSG and thinking I should buy one just incase the previous owner has not changed it. Also is there s guide or something to help me out with the changing?

@MarkyN I recently did mine. I got mine from local VW dealer
As for a guide I'll tell you how I did mine
-Remove wheel
-Remove the front half of the black plastic arch lining by undoing the torx screws - there's quite a few to undo.
-Locate DV - its good to use a torch here. Some recommend taping a torch in the direction of the DV so you have hands free.
-First off, remove the electrical connection to the DV (you do this using the same method for removing any other electrical connection in the car. I use a small flathead to prise back the catch)
-Undo the three bolts holding in the DV. These bolts are hex bolts. Although it could technically be done with a simple hex key, it would be very fidly. I used a small ratchet spanner with an extension to make it a lot easier.
-Take out the DV and replace, then just do the reverse of the above procedure for fitting.
Some recommend using threadlock on the bolts when putting them back. I didn't.
If you do a search on the forum for DV/Diverter Valve you'll get other guides people have done that you can use this in conjunction with. Some have pictures which is very usefull.
MarkyN:
Nice one mate. I think when I service it next month I'll make sure I change that part as well as the cam follower too
