Thanks.

Here ya go. its a Diverter Valve. there are 2 of them on our car.

HyperM3 · 03-01-2007, 01:08 PM

Awesome, Thanks for the quick reply. So basically, I can use the same one I have from GoFastBits on my A4 on the 335. Both cars use the same stock Bosch units.

From what I have seen when I checked thm out, its the same exact part That why iw as thinking the forged Diverter Valve would work on the 335.

but ya from what i know they are the same valve as A4's. Bosch DVs

It also seems that people only replace the one at the top, not both. Am I correct in that assumption?

So you think the Bailey Motorsport one would work as well...I have three or four of the stock bosch units from my B5 S4s..and B6 A4. May come in handy I guess.

The adaptor for A4 will not be direct bolt-on for 335i.
BMW use the quick connector called Twist II.

It is the same exact valve with different flanges... im sure if you changed that flex hose with a differnt hose you would be able to use it.

all in all it is the same exact bosch valve just different flanges.

Yes. If you trim the flange to make it like the following attachment. It will be direct bolt-on.

I use HKS SSQV, bought the SSQV adaptor for Audi on ebay and trim the adaptor to make it direct bolt-on.

CASHBY · 03-01-2007, 04:25 PM

I have not had any experience other than the Forge motorsports products. they have their DV and the 004 BOV that I have used on my audi.

The one I have from GoFastBits is adjustable. I have it set for 70%atmosphere 30% rerouted internal. Never through a CEL or ran rich because of it. Plus IMHO its one of the better sounding ones out there. No squeal or high pitched chirp.
