Default OEM DVs?

Anybody knows if the 06A 145 710 N part it's the last and this solves the problems of previous versions?

I have an APU engine (DBW,150hp), unchiped, that DV could resist in my engine?
I heard that this 710N ref failed in any TT-225, that could be fine in my less boosted engine?

I would like go with OEM parts, also because I only see where I live aftermarket blow-off valves, not DVs.

Greetings from Spain

Default opinions differ

Many people will say that the stock BPV (DV) cannot handle chipped boost. Others will say that isn't true.

Meanwhile, many people switched to Forge BPVs so that their stock BPVs wouldn't fail. Well, it turns out Forge's have design problems and are failing faster than stock BPVs.

Ouch. Change BPVs at your own risk. Right now, I'd stick with the stock BPV and see how the market settles out for a couple months.

Default Re: OEM DVs thermal problems?

It's said that the problem of the OEM DV is the heat, they fail with the heat, maybe the transverse mounted 1.8T are prone to fail by the proximity to the engine block, it's that?
or what?

In the longitudinal mounted 1.8T like mine, the DV it's separated from the engine,the newer OEM revisions could work well, anybody knows any A4 owner with problems or changed DV to newer OEM revised part?

I know a friend (in Spain like me, he hasn't problems yet) who wrote to Forge and they didn't replied. I wrote several days ago other email and I didn't received any reply..
I still thinking in OEM parts
