    wierd boost problem HELP!

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Its a 2003 A4 Avant w/ Revo software and Forge007 diverter valve, everything else is stock as far as i know

    OK my car idles perfect runs and shifts smooth but some nights i get horrible to zero boost and only a very loud continuous shhhuuuuuuuuuuu like forced air going nowhere and horrible acceleration
    1st gear no boost
    2nd gear the car will boost (bad) but it will be rough, the car jerks almost like its hitting a rev limiter (although the rpm's will go up smoothly) its so bad it makes my whole body shake
    3rd 4th and 5th are the same as 2nd

    what confuses me the most is other nights the car will boost like a champ with awesome loud healthy spooling and perfect acceleration throughout all 5 gears

    i would say the car runs great about 25% of the time

    i dont expect great performance from the car because it is about 97 degrees at night and 110 durring the day but what confuses me most is the fact that some nights the car feels awesome and pulls hard rulling out a boost leak?

    ive checked most hoses and the car has fresh oil (royal purp) and plugs( BKR7E)

    ask me questions ill try to answer to the best of my knowledge

    that sound is a boost leak, built a tester, test, find the leak and repair it.

    could be a bad DV or N75 also...... but i woudl check for the boost leak first.

    my guess is DV. If it stays open, your boost will go in a little loop. It may be getting stuck open only sometimes, accounting for the occasional normal operation.
