chris_bramley Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I'm sure it's the problem I'm having. It MIGHT be the IACV as well but odds are it's just the one. how much for an unused/second hand one of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_bramley Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Is this the large actuator shaped valve which sits under the turbos, if so ive got 1. It's the large silver valve that sits under the turbos at the driver's side, just beneath the heat shield. Big fat silver looking thing with an arm coming off it behind. Having said that, I've done a pressure test with (of all things) a bike pump and the arm moves fine, so I'm a bit stuck :s Let me check up on it first and then if you've got that part I may need a new one...

RobSheffield Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Perhaps check all the plumbing and wiring to the valve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_bramley Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Thanks for the reply Rob, unfiortunately I've tried that - replaced every single hose, and tried testing with ttc as well so the vsv's aren't even a factor. far as I can tell the egcv is only activated by pressure and that seems to work. grrr.
