What's your reason on removing your n75 bro?

I'm not too sure where it is on the 2.0t, but on my 1.8t it's just after the maf sensor..

One of my inlet/outlet broke off so I need to replace it.. Looks like the one going to the intake that broke off
On the mkv it is located on the turbo, a bit of a mission to get to.

Yeah not really any tutorials I could find either. But if you can see it and know where it is then you will simply have to figure it out.
Seems to meed a 30 size torx bit to undo the bracket and then pliers and side cutter to het the pipes off and back on.

Remove the intake pipe to get to top bolt.
Remove the diss charge pipe and the silencer on the turbo makes for more space and remove the n75.
You will battle to brake the clamps on the wastegate actuator and head unit.

Nope one should not cause the other. But pcv failures are as common as chips on them.

Long story...first I had found my mounting loose.they guy who did my cambelt didn't tighten it. One bolt missing one broke on the block and one was holding the mounting. So I got someone to sort that out. Then we found the n75 broken. Fixed that than the idle was bad and re s fluctuating, vw says pcv . I do ha e. Viezu stg 1 on the car :type:

I will also check the oil cap extension, especially after the car has been worked on. Maybe mechanic put pressure on oil cap extension and it cracked which will also coz idling to fluctuate. When you scan car it will not pic up that oil cap extension is breathing air or cracked and will point to the PCV Valve.

Test:

-Start car
-Wiggle Extension to see if idling changes
-If so, remove and turn cap directly on.

This happen in my case and I just removed the extension and idling came right.
