Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

    Diverter Valve Location

    Alright guys, strap yourselves in because it's stupid question time.

    Can anyone tell me where the diverter valve is located on a facelifted Tiguan? (or pre I suppose they are the same)
    and how to access it?

    Be gentle, it's my first turbo car/vw and I'm a bit lost.

    Thanks all.

    Found this image on one of the American forums:

    Have a look there first, i guess. Supposed to be a bit of a pain to get to, but is your reason for wanting to find it's location so as to put an aftermarket one in? I got my mechanic to install a GFB one a couple of years ago while i was getting a service done & there was no extra time charged from them.

      Thanks mate. Yeah I figured it's on the drivers side behind the footwell, so I suppose if I jack it up on that side I'll get some access. Yeah I'm putting on a gfb and checking that I have a rev d dv.

      Having the car lowered on eibach springs on Wednesday now so I may do just that

        Got impatient and did it myself over the long weekend. Bloody hell what a tight little spot to get to!
