Diverter Valves
My '02 has about 60k miles on it now and it's time for service. The 710N diverter valves keep coming up in the searches I've done for service indicator resets and tuneups and I've got a simple question about which ones to invest in. I have a stock car but I have noticed the partial throttle shudder that some have complained about over the years. Do I just replace the stock diverter valves with the OEM 710N's, or do I spring for the Original Hyperboost valves at $100 each?

I vote 710P
Its the newest DV from Audi. Part number 06A-145-710-P and runs you $46.35 MSRP, just $10 more than the 710N. Though veedub might sell it to you for around $30.

Definitely replace, I did so as preventative and noticed improvement - but
audi/vw sells you parts in boxes marked 710N and you get a 710J or G or something lesser, or at least earlier in the alphabet. We ordered 2 sets and checked stock at the dealer, all were the same. Still, it was better than the old As I had stock.
Try the P, see if it comes in as a P and not a G. I paid like $31-32 each recently.
