Maintenance of Turbo XS BPV?

I've had the Turbo XS BPV for about a year now, and it still works great, but I was just curious to know if I need to re-build it or adjust it or lube it at all (maybe once a year)?

Lubing should be fine.

I think I a little spray of WD40 should be good. You just want to prevent the piston from sticking if oil gets trapped in there.

i've had mine for a year, no cleaning/relubing so far and it's holding up great.

We have to do it soon...

A few of us met up at SH last night as a starting point to the Edgewater meet. MKGIY called the meet but family plans made him back out. Maybe next week. I plan on checking the VW meet on Wednesday.
