my recirculating dump valve makes a noise like blowing over the top of a bottle so im assuming its knackered,or is it normal,can i fix it by lubricating the valve. standard denso thing?

It sounds to me like you have a leak, check all the surrounding pipework ect. :rock:

that would be rather i good idea paul. will it be ok to run cos i dont seem to have any boost issues just the silly noise it makes maybe i try some magic spray oil and keep activating the valve to get oil around the crusty dried up piece of junk :lol:

You could try to take it apart to see why it's not closing (that's if you can take them apart :unsure:).
blast some wd40 or brake/carb cleaner see if that clears it.
Should be fine to run but it won't get better but it may not get worse.

i would say that noise is normal, they are only diaphragm valves after all! ;) mine always sounded wierd. The other option is getting a Forge motorsport re-circ valve, which is a pistion type

Starlet GT 1.3 forged engine, tdo4 turbo @ 1.25bar = 252bhp = SOLD :(

EDIT: Charade GTxx 993cc three cylinder turbo, 173bhp @ 1.4bar (should hit 200bhp with a larger throttle body, removing stupid high lift cams and a bit more boost)
