Title: Anyone seen this before?
Post by: shaz1981 on September 21, 2020, 09:05:44 am

Got myself a MK5 Golf GTI, long term owner of a MK2 16v, certainly one of the more modern golfs ive driven that give an oldschool vibe, its a bit tatty but I got it cheap.

As usual boost leak issues, sent it to mechanic to swap out the diverter valve, seems like my diverter valve is different to all others, unless the mechanic has removed something else?

Left is new one I bought, right is what came off the car? Has 4 nuts not 3?(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200921/2486fb7928ce2b5537c71176a4737e3c.jpg)
