Default BPV's

I have noticed that there have been comments suggesting that "Audi" doesn't like it when BPV's (non Audi) are placed on the 2.7T engine. Why would they care? I have read that the stock BPV's do have reliability problems and that the Audi Advantage is used often to replace them.

Wouldn't this actually save Audi money?

And, if the BPV's (for a moment assume in a non chipped engine) were replaced and improved the performance of the engine (and the customer was happy) and did not damage it (as in how could a BPV damage the engine?) -- well, why would Audi care?

And, by the way, anyone chip an '03 yet?!?

500 miles on 03 allroad 2.7T 6spd: still loving it!

Default Re: BPV's

I read about a situation on the TT forum where a ring or a gasket of some sort came loose inside an after market BPV and was sucked into the engine.
