OOOOOOOh yeah location uuum if you folow the vacuum line from the very front of you intake manifold that line runs directly too it(should be a black cloth briaded line that probly leaks), it runs across the timing cover(under the turbos coolant line) thats the easyest way to find it.</P>


Now for removal of the stock one i finely got to use my flexy screwdriver thing that i thought was useless be very careful if you attempt to change the vac line without a new DV(bpv) the stock one is plastic and probly brittle and that stainless steel banjo clamp aint giving up without one hell of a fight(God I hate those damn things) your DV probly wont survive. Mine came out in two peices and jus to relieve my frustation with those clamps i smashed the whole thing with a big damn hammer(CRUNCH)</P>


Note:jack up the passenger side of the car and go at it from underneath also hose clamps might be to tight to use the srewdriver bit on that flexything use a socket</P>


</P>


Happy wrenching</P>

nah, its not tough - took me 15 minutes. Just be careful not to damage the vac lines (if your not replacing them) and make sure you either have new clamps or carefully removed the old ones so you can put them back on.

The BPV is behind and slightly up from the passenger lower bumper grill.

Some decent BPVs are Baily and Forge. If you want to go cheap you can get the TT 710N valve. Keep in mind that Baily and Forge valves require maintenance (ie. you need to oil them) regularly whereas the TT valve and other OEM valves do not require this.<edited><editID>brrman</editID><editDate>37918.4933101852</editDate></edited>

Not as much as the racing BOV which vents directly to the atmosphere but causes check engine light too illuminate or the car tostall if you want more noise than the the regular BOVs you can try a hybrid BOV which vents some to atmoshere and enough back to the intake to keep the sensors happy<IMG src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0">

a BPV does not make noise at all really. Olny time you will hear your BPV is if you a pushing mad boost, or it has ruptured.

Like SlimChriz said - BOV is bad for an audi with our setup. You will run rich because you will be releasing the air instead of recycling it as the car expects.

Some people have experienced satisfactory results with the hybrid valves though.<edited><editID>brrman</editID><editDate>37922.4244560185</editDate></edited>
