    I think the valve may have been working fine, but I didn't want the rattly piece anyway with broken parts in it. And I also learned that D/S changeover on DSG stick does not change the flaps. I always thought it did, cuz the idle goes up and it sounds louder.

    Hello, I have to replace one of them too. Do you have any tips to align the spring with the valve notch? Did you forced the rotor a bit? Thanks man

    • @LastHumansGarage
      @LastHumansGarage  Рік тому

      just to make sure your car is in "D" mode and not S mode, and preferrably NOT dynamic drive mode. The actuators should lock in pretty close to the slot in that case. i wouldnt buy used tho.. i hjave bpought some and used ones are old and brittle.. i even have a cracked one on my car right now.

    My rs3 I'm sure it has a problem with the valves, suddently one day I started up and the car had a strange different sound, like something was cutting the sound of it, I was in the highway I accelerated and pass 3500 rpm the valves didnt open even at 5000 rpm, so the valvel motor must be dead maybe? I need to change like you did?

    • @LastHumansGarage

      you have to test with it disconnected from the pipe, but still plugged in. then you can see if its turning

      @@SIMPLB9 the valve might be stuck.. so it isnt alllowing your motor to turn.. easy way to check.. take off the motor with 3 nuts and see if the valve flap in your exhaust moves back and forth. its easy to turn with your fingers.

    Are u sure D/S doesnt operate valves? Everytime i switch i hear a loud squeek coming from my left valve. I was thinking it might be the actuator.

    • @LastHumansGarage
      @LastHumansGarage  11 місяців тому +1

      bro... ive heard so many stories now i dont know what to believe anymore.. for 2 years i said D/S changes exhaust.. then one person said it doesnt.. it just raises idle which makes it sound louder.. i think i may have been right in the first place. IF you are in dynamic mode that is... cuz it starts in D mode by default if you start the car in dynamic.. then doing to S finishes up the dynamic mode, which is the engine settings.. which includes the flaps...

    • @LastHumansGarage
      @LastHumansGarage  11 місяців тому

      now if you are in Comfort or Normal... i say the D/S does NOT change the flaps...

    Looks like the valves only open and close when changing the drive modes (comfort, normal, dynamic), not when changing from D to S transmission modes.

      @@LastHumansGarage you could consider how the flaps work in a Golf R with the manual transmission. Since there’s no “S” it would have to rely on the drive mode instead

    • @LastHumansGarage
      @LastHumansGarage  Рік тому +1

      so the sound change is the just the idle going up 300rpm when you change from D to S. (and other things internal probably)
