Re: [MBZ] OT: TDI N75 Attn: Peter
It sounds like your car is having similar problems to mine. I verified the vacuum system from the actuator to the first joint. It holds fine and the actuator moves. I'm thinking maybe I'll buy the N75 and a meter of hose. Apparently you only need 28". -Curt On Tuesday, October 29, 2019, 5:53:50 PM EDT, Peter Frederick via Mercedes wrote: Sadly I have a spare for the ALH I'd send you, as I got the wrong one on the first try. For the BEW you need to have all three hose connections on the same side, make sure that's what you get. Didn't completely fix mine, I'll have to find my MitiVac this weekend and test the actuator and hose. I've been told the hose can wear at a support fitting and collapse under vacuum, leading to lack of boost when everything else is fine. Mine worked great yesterday, but today on the way home from work got wonky and the CEL came back on. By the time I got home it was fine.

Angie's car has some kind of vacuum leak that prevents the turbo from working properly, mine needs brakes. So after I figured my brake order I figured I'd price the N75 valve that actuates the turbo. https://www.idparts.com/pressure-converter-n75-for-turbo-a4-bewa5-brmmk6-cjaa-p-1251.html Angie's 2005 has the BEW engine so this is the right one for her car, earlier cars (up unti '03 I think) had the ALH engine, very different beast.I remember Peter having trouble with an N75 replacement but couldn't remember which one he had gotten. IDParts is my favorite supplier, as good to deal with as Rusty was and I get parts the next day since they're in state... -Curt ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
