How difficult is to replace the n75 valve?

[Chris78]

Hi guys! I have a question.. i have a cupra 1p.
I want to install a new n75 valve. How difficult is?.. do i have enough room from above the engine? Or i have to remove other parts so to have better access?
Suggestions from someone that already did that i will appreciate it..

Was dead simple on my Diesel, I'd expect the Cupra to be just as easy.

Depends. The ea113 have the turbo hidden behind the engine thats why i asked if someone already did that in this engine.

Not sure if it's just the "R" version of the Cupra like I have, but mine is at the top front next to the air intake.

That’s strange I’ve never seen that there on a 2.0t fsi before. Is that a R thing I didn’t think they were any different engine layout wise.

My car Is a german and if you see it have the Brake fluid reservoir on the right behind the intake manifold.... Thats why I'm also confused a little. Its not the R. Its the "normal' CDLD engine..

Ahh I didn’t see that sorry mate. I’ll take a look at mine in the morning and see if I can find where mine is and let you know the easiest way to remove it. I’m thinking take off the intake at the turbo side and you should be able to reach around to the turbo to take the valve off. Will let you know.

Taking out the intake from turbo its easy but putting my hands around to disassemble anything its pain in the ass
Let me know if you found an easy way

Just looking at it no easy way to do I don’t think mate sorry.

Better then to buy also silicone hoses and give it to a mechanic so to disassemble everything and install also the valve. I hate that i don't have easy access to the turbo.
Thanks mate

N75 is here, held by 3 bolts. Takes about 5 minutes to change.

Thats the diverter valve isn’t the n75 connected to the turbo on these?

This is the diverter valve not the n75 valve

Did you change the n75 yourself then, and you got a pic of where it is located? How easy or hard was it?

No i wasn't... Its mounted on the turbo. Its hard to get access. You must take out the turbo.

Hi mate search “the other stuff” on YouTube his last video from afew days ago it shows you someone taking it off. It’s a ramp job unfortunately.

I only see a kid in that channel not any leon car.
