Hello All,

after the HP pump was changed eventually and also before there seems to be an issue when accelerating and the turbo makes some strange noise. I thought to get the valve cleaned, but was wondering how as I couldn't really find anything. Just with air to blow into the lid or would petrol be ok as well? A cloth to wipe it clean?

Hi Matthias.
For what they cost i would just replace it with a new one, if you have the blue filter one.

Filter less one.

New filter kit one as an whole.

Don't forget to change the turbo vent inline filter, some of the crank case breather come with them.
 
Hello Arctic2,

Thank you. I have the cyclone in at the moment, but thought to go back to the 'fluffy' one. I think you and/or Nodge68 said through the cyclone one more oil would get in the EGR, etc..
About the valve I read somewhere I should or could clean the valve as well, but wasn't sure how it would be best done.

PS No haven't forgotten the small on the back, thank you.
