Another one bites the dust . . .

That's the exhaust gas bypass valve (EGBV). Is it open or shut? if it's permanantly open you'll vent loads of exhaust through it instead of #1 turbo until #2 is brought online. -Ian

 

I'll bet it's open as he mentioned the exhaust being "notably louder".

All sorted :) Took me 10 minutes to strip the top pipework, 2 hours to find anywhere in this desolate coffin-dodger's haven that actually sold C-clips (ended up going to 2 car places inc. Halfrauds, 1 brakes place, 1 ironmongery / hardware store, and finally bought some from a bicycle shop :rolleyes: ), and another 15 minutes to put everything back together.

 

Cheers everyone :)

 

 

 

 

 

But I'm still going to use the oil as an excuse with the missus to go single in the not-too-distant future :D
