Title: HOW TO :- Edition 30 DV
Post by: rich83 on March 23, 2011, 02:32:57 pm: I know this is easy and takes 10mins, but unless youve done these things once they can be a bit daunting

*I take no responsibility*

TOOLS

Torx 20 Screwdriver
Torx 30 Screwdriver

HOW TO

Start by removing the air intake fixing bolts (torx 20)... one each side.

Push it toward the back of the engine bay and swing it to the right.

Remove the bolt (Torx 30) marked by the red arrow, this bolt attaches the DV to the engine block.

Removal of the bolt allows you to move the DV toward the front of the engine bay so you can access the other 3 torx 30 bolts.

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm6.static.flickr.com%2F5069%2F5552617917_69628d12ba_z.jpg&hash=23fe50748a37bed6eaba3653517dc325a1214252)

Now is a good time to remove the electrical connector from the DV, just push the tab down and pull it off.

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm6.static.flickr.com%2F5051%2F5552618429_02f69c89d7_z.jpg&hash=2b437654755560050263058e65973851dd05c793)

Starting with the bolt on the right (as shown below) remove the three bolts one by one in a clockwise direction.

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm6.static.flickr.com%2F5228%2F5552618171_3c50bab086_z.jpg&hash=be78ac47bc775432b22cc89674c41045a342209d)
(NB... ignore inconsistance in the photos... your clip will be unclipped :P )

Once you have removed all Torx 30 bolts the DV will simply lift straight out.

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm6.static.flickr.com%2F5068%2F5553203046_daf7bee4d6_z.jpg&hash=4574f72489e4748e520650daefea871c781e6133)

Inspect the orange diaphragm for tears and either refit, or purchase the ~~revision D DV which is part number 06H 145 710 D~~ revision G is now considered the best OEM version

====================================

To replace simply reverse the above. Make sure that the DV is seated correctly when you replace the bolts, and take care not to thread the bolt which attaches the DV to the engine mounting bracket

Title: Re: HOW TO :- Edition 30 DV
Post by: berg on March 23, 2011, 05:12:20 pm: Thanks i need a guide like this as my diy skills are horrendous.

out of interest does the revision d DV offer anything over the original in terms of performance or is it merely a more sturdy design?
Title: Re: HOW TO :- Edition 30 DV
Post by: rich83 on March 23, 2011, 05:16:10 pm: From what i can gather its just a more robust design. The diaphragm revision is more prone to failure if you are remapped.

Post by: alexperkins on March 24, 2011, 07:29:23 am: Having swapped mine to a Rev D it boosts much harder than before, even with my Rev C in perfect condition :signLOL:

Post by: Rampage on May 10, 2011, 07:33:05 pm: Fantastic guide buddy. All printed off and ready to check/replace my dv on my ED30. Quick question... do you use a bit of thread lock when putting back on? Can't remember if I've read you do somewhere before?

Cheers

Post by: Marks_ED30 on May 14, 2014, 05:56:58 pm: Thanks for the write up, just had a look at my Edition 30 and I am using a C. Am going to replace it with the D from awesome gti, also thinking about getting one of the forge adapter to put on it too.

Any one have any opinions about them as I have read mixed reviews.

Don't bother with a D, they leak. Buy a G from your local dealer :happy2:

Forge adapter leaks boost too, the TFSI's don't really work well with them. Tuners are ad using people to steer clear of them
Title: Re: HOW TO :- Edition 30 DV
Post by: Marks_ED30 on May 14, 2014, 06:06:28 pm: Yeah I just re-read richs post where he had crossed out the D, okay sweet thanks mate. NO D or Forge Adapter :happy2:
