well i found a great audi and vw garadge down near me so i called and was asking about upgrades and i mentioned a diverter valve and they said that they were a bad choice b.c you have to keep them oiled or they will seaze up so the just told me they no matter what on a 500 hr s4 or a a4 they leave the stock ones on...opions???

You can get the 710N - Short for "06A 145 710 N", the part number for the OEM bypass/diverter valve from the Audi TT. Highly recommended as an inexpensive fix for replacing worn-out bypass valve(s) on the 1.8T & 2.7T.

No maintenance required on this or any other diverter valve that I am aware of.

Not as good as the Forge or other high performance diverters, but the cheapest upgrade (about $40) of the stock diverter, buy it from many tuners such as:

Audi A4 Stuff-Audi A4 Performance Parts-Turbo System-DV, BPV, 710N,Forge,

VB

Our piston valves require periodic regreasing, this is what allows them to last, essentially, forever, and allows us to warranty them forever. It is a 5 minute procedure that needs to be done once or twice per year. Here is a link:

Our diaphragm valves do not need to be serviced, and in the eventuality of a failure, be it the diaphragm or some other component, they too are covered by a lifetime warranty.

if you have the 1.8T then i would go with the Forge 007 or the baileys DV you choose they are both popular brands.
