Hello,

I was hoping some one could help me. I have a 2002 S3 and constantly seem to have a boost leaks. I have a local garage the puts it on a rolling road but they charge me every time I do this. (Its becoming a weekly booking)

I have been looking on the internet for a tool that i can pressure test myself and have found a company called www.boostleak.com (http://www.boostleak.com/) that sell a tester but they are out of stock (Which is no help!) I don’t really want to mess about making my own can any one help? Or suggest alternatives on finding a leak?

Thanks

Hi Richard, could be the dump valve unless you have already checked it?

You can take it off and bin it!!! :)
Bailey's dont come with a selection of springs for boost pressure, hence it could be your problem, not holding boost and spiking.
Fit a forge dump valve they are 100% better and come with different springs....:beerchug:
