You can get at the back screw you need to use an "L" shaped key , get one from halfords. Just be carefull not to drop the torx screw , a bloody nightmare to find in the engine tray :blink:
Rob can you remember the torx size off the top of your head? It looks relatively big ie T40 or something?

finally got the d valve fitted. seriously, it must have taken me about an hour, but ill admit i'm a total rookie. finally got the bugger off, then had that, f*@k what if i cant get this back on sorta feeling. overall its really just awkward, rather than anything difficult, had the car up on axle stands, and need to turn the drivers wheel all the way to the right to get room to get at the screws, but its definitely doable. the most i've ever done before this was change a wheel and an air filter. Cars driving same as before which is good, there was no problem with the original dv i took off, but i've only done 5500 miles so i wouldn't expect any problems yet. now bring on the bluefin

I got the halfords ratchet set with the flexible extension, which made removing the screw a breeze... it was also supposed to be £20, but they only charged me £10... another useful tool for my collection.

:D

Fitted my "D"Spec valve today, it's a doddle. For anyone who may want to know in advance, the screws that mount the valve are T30 Torx Screws.

Thanks David at Seremotors for an outstanding level of service mate.

Sorry Allan I don't have any pictures. You can't use the OEM uprated DV though with the Forge Spacer.

just to clarify -
06F145710G is now superseded to 06H145710D for both FRTFSI and Cupra
and the 'D' is the only one now supplied

I've just brought one of these Rev D units for my cupra k1, after reading this thread just wanted to confirm that it is the correct valve for my car?
