Re: Blow off valve failure? (BOV, CRV, CBD??) I know it's not a true BOV ... (05_V70R)
Sounds like the TCV (Turbo Control Valve)? I can't imagine the wastegate control being off and on in 20 minutes.
It's a $35 part and the failure rate is high, for some reason. It's attached to the side of the airbox and has 1 electrical wire and 3(?) boost / vaccuum lines running to it.
(BTW Where else but SS can you get a response in 2 minutes!)

| Has this happened to anyone? Car is a 2005 with 10k on the clock - wife called and said the R had no power on the highway.... Dealer had it fixed in 20 mins...so that's the good news...what does this part cost and is the failure rate high? TIA |
