S5 BAC Valve

The S5 BAC valve is located below the intake correct, I saw it on the S4 and it was just like sitting there on mine, I see it beneath the intake, so is it easier to get to it if I just take the intake off?

Just take off the intake snorkey (plastic acordian lookin thing) Then take off the two 10mm nuts holding on the bac. It shouldnt be that hard to get off and shouldnt require taking off the intake.

Yea, I meant that hose accordian thing by intake but wasnt sure what it was called, then all I gotta do is take off coolant hoses and such, Im having some rough idles whenever I turn on AC and step on brakes since both of those require air Ive narrowed it to the BAC valve being all stuffed up

Oh man, I'm dumb sometimes.

I thought he said ACV. Ignore everything I said. It's two nuts.

Click here to read how to check the BAC valve. Do this before you remove it.
