Jesus, never thought that a dirty sponge could make this difference. My car was acting like an old school diesel with turbo lag, and less power overall. No codes, nothing. And also frequent DPF regens. Cleaned that sponge and car came back to life right away, and DPF regens back to normal. The sponge also started falling apart, and I've replaced the solenoid anyway.

Mr Fix, I owe you a drink. I was ready to buy and fit a new vaccum valve and Googled the part number. This is how I stumbled across this video. I am stunned that by following your instructions, my car is now running fault free, with the fault code P0234 (Overboost) now gone. I genuinely cannot thank you enough 👍
This worked a treat on my mondeo mk4 tdci.Engine was running rough and turbo wasn’t spoiling up properly.Tried cleaning all the obvious sensors, maf, map e.t.c But it was cleaning these filters that got my boost back.Mr Fix you are a legend, Thanks.
Yes, same thing happened to me on the mk4. This clip saved it from being set on fire :))) as it was really annoying me, and not even throwing any error code.
Thanks for the video! When told my power issue was likely caused by the TCV I was not looking forward to digging near the firewall to find it. Fortunately I could tell from the video it's mounted near the front of the engine and it turned out to be a 5-minute fix.
Thanks for the video demonstration, but on my 2008 C5 III 2.0 Hdi there is a different kind of valve, no filter ... or was I looking at the wrong element? Mine is located on the front right corner of the engine.
This valve is very popular and are used in different engines to control different functions. In my Volvo C30 with 2.0D engine there were three of those.
Update 2024 July: I bought the solenoid I changed it, and i test drove it. Was a big difference did not expected it to be this big of difference. I do recommend do change the whole thing, the sponge can break easily. The sponge of my old valve was really dark enough dirty.
Hi. Your engine bay looks exactly like mine, so I supposed it's 2.0 Duratorq, probably on Ford Focus? If so.... Is there supposed any pipe to be loose as a breather? I have one free tube from this valve, feels little suction from it on idle, so i assume that that end is supposed to go into tuzrbocharger actuator. Is it correct? Im talking about the and that goes back under wipers cover. Thank you. This video is huge help
There are 3 pipe connections. where do they connect to. I have one which is around 20cm long and cannot find anywhere to fit the other end. I am in process of replacing the solenoid
Had a faulty solenoid with an intermittent fault. I removed the cap where the sponge filter is and it had deteriorated which caused the valve to stick.
Hello my Mondeo mk4 2008 2.0 tdci 140hp had two of them. I had strange buzzing noise when turning engine off. Then it started kicking when accelerating which made me check whats going on. I noticed the one of the valves, close the intake manafold was making the noise, and i wasnt sure, but when i switched the two valves my car changed the sound, it was sounding more like whistling turbo sound and i knew that something was wrong with one of the two valves. So i put them back as they was and when i added more than 3000RPM the car went into limp mode with ESP light on with errors: P2263:73-27 - Turbocharger boost performance U0401 - Invalid data recieved from ECM/PCM My question is if you know.. Which valve controls the turbocharger? Is it possible one of the brown valves to make the car going into limp mode with turbocharger interferences? Are both valves linked together? Thank you very much i will apreciate your opinion on my problem :)
Hey, my issue is that the throttle housing flap gets stuck after shut down and the car won't start again unless I disconnect the vacuum hose from the throttle housing. I removed the vacuum valve like you did and changed the sponge. After two shutdowns it was okay but after the third, it didn't start(hence the flap got stuck again). I also cleaned the throttle housing and it moves freely. What would you recommend I try next?

Hi have a 2.0hdi c4 vts located 2 solenoids at front left which one is the turbo solenoid as ones on top of the other not sure the bottom one can be removed from above have p2562 and p0299 fault codes

yes, it looks the same. If I remember it's located somewhere between alternator and AC compressor. If you have throttle body flaps related problem, you can start with disassembling and cleaning it. Also you can check with a syringe if flaps move freely.
Hi on my focus mk2. 5 1.6 tdci 60 plate I have noticed a pipe not connected. It seems to be coming from near the windscreen wipers. Near the bk of engine bay. Do you know if this sounds right or has it come un connected
My filter sponge fell apart under water , it was soo dirty and also i broke my valve pipe, will i have some problems because of that? I already have problem that turbo go to safe mode after few times when it gives it's boost
Is there any difference on the way you connect the two vacuum lines to the valve? I did the procedure but I am not sure on the position of the two vacuum lines.
Which one of the lines is vacuum and which one is device? Is the upper line going to the OUT section and the line that comes from the section near the fuel filter going to VAC?
What car? Which engine? What's your valve controlling? Best if you follow the lines. You will find that all VACs are connected with each other, and OUT lines go straight to devices.
The car is Volvo v50 2.0d and the valve is the same as the one in the video. I am not able to see in the video which goes to Vac and which goes to Out. That is why I am asking if the line from the upper part of the engine goes to Out and the one coming from the side of the fuel filter goes to Vac.
OUT goes to turbo. that's the line that goes between engine and battery, then behind the engine under the EGR valve. VAC goes under the intake manifold.
Can inlet manifold swirl flaps crack or fall appart because of the invalid vacuum valve ? And if crack can it go throught the turbine exit and cause damage ? Can car than go on ?
I would say that it's unlikely that vacuum valve can damage swirl flaps. Anything in the intake manifold can cause damage to the engine and components.
Mine is the same. If I press the accelerator fast enough, I get turbo pressure drops. But if I press equally, then there's no problem. :/ Maybe someone could comfirm, that it's this parts fault? Don't want to start searching for a more serious problem.
@@arturasklimavicius276 did you fix the issue? Any help appreciated. I'm suffering the same issue and will be taking a look this week at trying to resolve the boost issue
@@arturasklimavicius276 hi there, i think i have the same problem as you described it, wanted to check if you ever resolved it? Would appreciate any help! Thanks
That's normal. This vacuum valve is keeping the ink flap closed when you turn off the engine to help with stopping the engine. Then, after 10-15 s. controller shuts down, vacuum valve is powered off and the flap goes to default (open) position.
i have a Mondeo mk4 and it does the exactly same noise and it cuts power from time to time when i accelerates, this happends till 2500 rpm and it produces the same noise again. Could be the vacuum?
If the filter is clogged it can cause the valve to not work properly. If you don't have any issues with the car, then cleaning is just a part of a maintenance service to make sure that the car will continue to work.

Hi. I have an issue with my focus 2010 2.0 diesel. P2263 and P1719 came on and took it to a ford dealer mechanics . They cleaned the turbo charger , they check the actuator, egr valve. and replaced the air filter already but the P2263 still came on. What could be the problem ? They asked the other ford dealer from different places what they suggested is to check the transmission. Thanks for your help.
One At Athan Hi! Did you fixed your car? One of my friend have the same problem, we did the same things that you, but we can’t repair his car. Can you help me, what was your problem?
Vacuum valve is used to control variable geometry turbo and flaps inside inlet manifold. If it does not work (misbehave) you can experience power loss, limp mode, overboots, trouble starting the engine...
mr-fix I've currently got an underboost condition with my 2.0d and it only makes boost properly above 2500rpm, I will check this out thanks a lot for the video
got the bastard out.. bottom bolt was in a right spot.. Now trying to get the filter out but it's a different filter mechanism to the one on yours even though it's in the same place and everything so don't know if prying it off will break it or not. searching the Haynes manual atm
Sir, can you tell me why my boost gauge shows "-1.0" bar? I use an app. call "torque" and obd2 bluetooth device to connect and show them. My car runs normal. And I had tried to look for error code by scanning it but nothing show up. Is that software setting incorrect or anything in hardware breakdown? Pls help me. Thanks. BTW, it's a Ford Focus 2.0 tdci.
mr-fix Sir, it just stay at -1.0 bar when start up. The funny thing is when I hit the throttle, it, sometimes, can reach +0.3 bar. I got this second-hand car 2 weeks ago. The engine works..okay...kind of. Not rough idle and no strange sound when accelerating....(sigh) arrrrrrrr...I haven't try full acceleration...yet...
Mine is making a loud buzzing noise when the engine is on . I cleaned the sponge filter but no change. Otherwise there is no performance issues with the truck.Any suggestions ?
@Farina Marcini i have a ford fiesta from 2008 with the psa 1.6 diesel engine , bought the car and it wont rev past 4000rpm... feels verry slow to. the boost solenoid is making a buzzing sound when the car is on idle, does that buzzing sounds means its working or that it is broken? many thanks.
Please someone help me. I cleaned all the three valves and still have a power loss. First 3 gears are okish but then its a slow car. This happened after changing fuel filter and mass flywheel, there is no to little air in the fuel line. I ordered a new gas house inlet as I read that the valves sometimes break down
Ok so I will need to search it. Can it cause the problem that there is no power ? But also there are no fault and nothing shown when doing diagnostic. How to check is it working corectly ?
Replacing parts to trouble-shot no power issues is a bad idea. Best if you connect your car with diagnostic interface and check some live data from your car. Then you'll see if the fuel pressure is correct, air flow/temp/pressure, acceleration pedal readouts... Or maybe your VNT is stuck.
Might sound like a silly question, but is this located underneath the car looking upwards? My car is a C-MAX 1.6 TDCi 90 and has low boost and shakes on switch off. Could this be the cause?
My wastgate on 1.6tdci focus mk2.5 is not working! I have a overboost p0234-62. The car is lazy as f*ck! bad acceleration... The wastgate actuator doesn't move! When I start the engine as soon as vacuum pump start the lever pull's in and stay stuck! I have *changed* the vacuum valve with NEW, oem by pierburg and I was pissed when noticed that same thing is happening! It looks like that valve is not being driven by ECU via 2 pin connector ?!? But, on other hand when I plug obd2 forscan i get duty cycle %% changing when i rev the engine! WTF ??? two things I have to mention: 1) egr is blanked and pcm tuned by professionals, focus was like a rocket !!! 2) 20 days ago I got dashboard failed, cold solder, but i managed to get home and take the pcb for resoldering... after few hours dashboard is connected and next 2 days again, it was flying like a rocket fast, normal acceleration 100% but already 3rd day it become lazy AGAIN? WTF ???
Most likely access to the turbo control vacuum valve in 1.6HDI engine is from underneath the car. Somewhere under the air filter box, next to the engine starter.

I've got this car, on my 2007, it is on the back of the engine, you cannot see it. under the black plastic trim with the wipers on, there will be a breather type pipe with a filter on the end. follow this down until you feel it, it was a whole arms reach down if that helps. I have yet to remove it and see however, but I will be jacking the car up soon to have a look underneath as that may be easier than through the top.

Like a buzzing for about 30 seconds after you turn it off?
mr-fix yes, that buzzing noise contuines about 10-15 sec. after turning off the engine.
That's normal. This vacuum valve is keeping the ink flap closed when you turn off the engine to help with stopping the engine. Then, after 10-15 s. controller shuts down, vacuum valve is powered off and the flap goes to default (open) position.

Ok so I will need to search it.
Can it cause the problem that there is no power ? But also there are no fault and nothing shown when doing diagnostic. How to check is it working corectly ?
Replacing parts to trouble-shot no power issues is a bad idea. Best if you connect your car with diagnostic interface and check some live data from your car. Then you'll see if the fuel pressure is correct, air flow/temp/pressure, acceleration pedal readouts... Or maybe your VNT is stuck.
Might sound like a silly question, but is this located underneath the car looking upwards? My car is a C-MAX 1.6 TDCi 90 and has low boost and shakes on switch off. Could this be the cause?
This kind of valve is used to control turbos and intake flaps. If it behaves incorrectly then you can experience various symptoms including yours.
I have the same engine as you Greg. Do you have to remove the bottom cover from the engine to get at it?
If not this than check the AVS (looks like trottle body on petrol engines, but its funtion is quite different)
I HAVE CODE P1746 it mean need chacge soldenoid yes??? Please help. Car Peugeot 607
...or check wiring and fuse that powers the solenoid.
Is it turbo boost sensor? I have got p2566 malfunction
No. It's not the turbo sensor. It's a vacuum valve which controls the turbo.
@@mrfixpl so where is the turbo boost sensor 2.0tdci ford engine?
@@bartbartosz6448 There's MAP sensor on the intake manifold and there's a VNT position sensor on the turbo itself.
My wastgate on 1.6tdci focus mk2.5 is not working! I have a overboost p0234-62. The car is lazy as f*ck! bad acceleration... The wastgate actuator doesn't move!
When I start the engine as soon as vacuum pump start the lever pull's in and stay stuck! I have *changed* the vacuum valve with NEW, oem by pierburg and I was pissed when noticed that same thing is happening! It looks like that valve is not being driven by ECU via 2 pin connector ?!? But, on other hand when I plug obd2 forscan i get duty cycle %% changing when i rev the engine! WTF ???
two things I have to mention:
1) egr is blanked and pcm tuned by professionals, focus was like a rocket !!!
2) 20 days ago I got dashboard failed, cold solder, but i managed to get home and take the pcb for resoldering... after few hours dashboard is connected and next 2 days again, it was flying like a rocket fast, normal acceleration 100% but already 3rd day it become lazy AGAIN? WTF ???
i have a c30 with 1.6 PSA engine. i cant find it
Most likely access to the turbo control vacuum valve in 1.6HDI engine is from underneath the car. Somewhere under the air filter box, next to the engine starter.
Take off the engine tray and slide yourself under the car, past the gearbox and look up. It's off to the right slightly in plain view.
@@mrfixpl the valve is different, I think the filter is not inside the valve

Wlasnie sie mecze z p2263 w kudze 2.0tdci mam nadzieje ze to pomoze
I can't find this vacuum valve in my 208 thp engine...
In Morden cars engineer replaced it with fully electronic egr and turbo.
What to do if the sponge falls apart while washing? What to put instead?
try to find kitchen sponge that lets air through and cut something of similar shape.
Good
How do you clean swirl control valve control vacuum switch?
Where is my location on my car Peugeot Partner 2012
Hi I have a problem with my peugeot 508, normally when you stars thé car ,arrow that tells you how many km you are driving has to go until thé end but mine stops at 170kmh and turns Back....
I did not know where exactly this valve is in focus 1.6TDCI 90hp
I've got this car, on my 2007, it is on the back of the engine, you cannot see it. under the black plastic trim with the wipers on, there will be a breather type pipe with a filter on the end. follow this down until you feel it, it was a whole arms reach down if that helps. I have yet to remove it and see however, but I will be jacking the car up soon to have a look underneath as that may be easier than through the top.
