[s-cars] Wife's car making ANOTHER noise!

[CLAG500 at aol.com]

Elijah,

  I was going to reply last night but I forgot all about it. (I've been a
little behind on the emails) Anyway the Hooooo sound under part throttle is
from using a BPV that does not have the reinforcment in it. I got the same
thing from the cheap Bosch (sport) unit. I think you can still get the
reinforced one. It should be listed for the 225 HP TT. You can tell if it has
the reinforcement by looking at the bottom of the diaphram. It will have a
brass disc in it. If all you see is rubber it will honk like that no matter
what. HTH.
