How did u know it was the diverter valve? My audi has same code. But has a p0171 code too. To lean I'm thinking the lean code.causeimg the under boost code so I'm gonna try fixing that first
Where is it best to jack the car up? My grandma has one and need to change this part. I'm used to my tahoe just jack it up any where on the frame lol. But want to know best spot to jack it up to do this job.
wakanda forever yep mine is too! I may replace the Cats idk yet because I’m NC we can pass inspections with a CEL. When you remove the Diverter Valve if the seal isn’t broken then your issue is your Cats. My seal ring wasn’t broken
wakanda forever yes it’s fine your turbo just supposedly won’t give boost meaning it’s a regular ole car without turbo...even driving with bad Cats are fine...so your safe..give me an update bro
@@leo4870 no symptoms that I would consider and issue with turbo but I did notice idle issue and a code for multiple misfires which I had on a vehicle before that I found was the catalyst converter
Man your a lifesaver! All I saw was wategate issues but you were right my issue was the diverter valave
Glad it fixed your issue
You are a godsend
Glad this video helped!!!

Good looking out.. I'm about to get to work on that same problem..
Did it fix your problem?
Great!!
I don’t have any check engine light but I don’t hear turbo kicking anymore. Should I be replacing the diverted valve anyways ?
I made a mistake and used a t30 and think I stripped the bolts any idea how to maybe get them off or what to use to get them off
Helped me well find it anyways valve will be here in a couple of days along with a blow-off spacer is that a T-30 torx bit?
5mm allen
Good job!
Thanks!

On the side with a safety jack
You didn’t show where that is under the car
Preciate it✊🏽 extremely helpful. I was happy as hell when that light went off
No problem at all! Thanks for watching!
Hellyeah it was my brother
Great 💪🏾 thanks for watching
I have a 2010 and got this same code. Is it the same thing?
Yes but this code can be the catalytic converter also. That’s what I found later on that mine was.
Holy Jesus the 3rd screw is so hard to get to. How'd you do it?
Hey, did you eventually get it? I still can’t get 1 screw open 😑
I can’t even remember it was so gard
Wd40, squeeze your hand and blindly turn it lol that's how I did it
Did a bad dv make your car really slow compared to normal?
Same problem mine is having, car feels really weak compared to normal and gives this code gonna give it it try and replace it
Yes
@@540tv6 I got rid of mine already lol
@@skylerbond56 me too lol Audi is problem after problem
@@540tv6 yeah pretty bad when my RX8 is more reliable lol
Did this fix your problem And will it work on my 2007
+wakanda forever light came back on but found that the code associated with a Cataytic Converter also
@@540tv6 thank you. I just suddenly lost boost. Making only 1.0 to 2.0 in/hg . It's keeping vacuum so I don't think it's a leak.

@@540tv6 got you. I'll update when I get under there. Is driving on this safe for the car?

I got same code but ur saying it's for a catalytic converter tho
Might just put the test pipe in lol fuck emissions
Right in my county we can still pass inspection
Yea from reading up on it I’ve seen a couple times that the cats could be the issue ima get them checked
@@540tv6 thanks man I appreciate it
IS THIS 2.0 TFSI ENGINE?
YES
How oh how did you get the top screw ? >.< I'm about to rip a car apart.
How can you tell that for sure it’s bad I have a p0299
Only way is going thru troubleshooting the voltage and fuses of any but the part wasn’t expensive at all. If you take it off might as well replace it
@@540tv6 like what symptoms did it do before the new part
@@leo4870 no symptoms that I would consider and issue with turbo but I did notice idle issue and a code for multiple misfires which I had on a vehicle before that I found was the catalyst converter
Its a bitch to take off sometimes w old screws but worth always🙌
Your not lying smh!!
