Cbv Broken?


volflo

Recommended Posts

when stepping of the gas i now get a sh-sh-sh- sound (like the rally cars) instead of one long blow-off sound (i have a cone where i used to clearly hear it)

the line from intake manifold to the valve at the turbo is in place.

the membrane is ok as well.

but still the air seems to be vented over the turbine and not back into the air intake section.....

i popped off my connection from intercooler to throttle body three times yesterday.

What can it be?

Simply too much boost? (20psi)

What else could be broken?

How do i check if the spring that pushes the membrane is still intact?

check the vacuum line that leads to it (I had that problem) and it was making the same exact noise, almost like a fluttering sound. It could be worn out as well (from higher boost levels)

you mean if its cracked it cant push open the valve anymore?

good point. tho i am not really happy to remove the whole line cos i know what a kasdggjhsadkgljhadsfg it is to get it back on..... :angry:

The vacuum line running to the CBV has the job of opening the valve with vacuum when the intake manifold stops seeing boost and begins to see vacuum. If that line is cracked it may only be opening the bypass valve sporadically, or not at all, which would result in weird sounds from the CBV and/or compressor surge. Check that line ASAP. I replaced mine with 3/16 fuel line.

I have what sounds like the same sound you are having... I get a sort of fluttering when I let off the gas. All of the vacuum lines have been replaced so I am assuming the cbv is busted?

yes more than a fair chace.Take it off and have a look,dont leave it to long the turbos dont like it,what you are hearing is the blades chopping air.
