I will also Add that there is no need to remove any af the intercooler plumbing just the air intake hose and 2 brackets with hold the fuel hoses don't need to disconnect any fuel hoses and there is a wiring harness which is held by a couple of clips just unclip and move out of the way you will need a T25 Torx head and a long extension to get in there and a telescopic magnet to put back in my alternative was a small piece of Blue tac on the Torx bit did the job perfectly
hope this can help someone in the future
cheers Pete

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but wondered if you could tell me, or even photo if possible, where exactly the scv is on the v9x engine. Have a feeling mine has died as the truck won't fire, it has the 0089 code up. Any help is much appreciated. Cheers, Mark. Oh I'm from the UK so sorry if I am late with any replies to you.

The SCV (if yours has one, which is likely) sits on the top of the pump, at about 1 o'clock as you look at it from the front. It has a black electrical connector on it.

I wouldn't suspect the SCV for smoke straight away, as Manning says. I'd look at air filter, MAFS clean (it's in the air intake, unlike the YD25, yours is part of the air tube itself just outside the air filter). You MUST be careful with this. Do NOT EVER poke anything into the MAFS. You can spray it with electrical contact cleaner, but don't touch the innards, it's extremely sensitive (and expensive). If the MAFS is dirty, it will report the incoming air stream incorrectly to the ECU and the ECU will calculate fuel and boost incorrectly.

You could whack a Bluetooth OBD adapter (ELM327) in and watch your boost pressure. The V9X should easily produce 20psi of boost. If you're not getting that, and boost pressure doesn't rise fairly quickly when your engine revs climb, your turbocharger might be less responsive than it ought to be. This will probably be a bearing issue, and may show itself as a sloppy impeller/turbine shaft. This shaft shouldn't wobble, if yours does then your turbocharger may need replacing.

As Manning says, checking the air path is important. Also make sure your battery terminals are nice and clean as erratic electrical connections can cause problems which might result in commands to the turbocharger or fuel system not being as accurate as they ought to be.

Hi Old.Tony Thanks for your recent replies. So I know that the genuine Nissan Part number is 1665200QAA and the Bosch part number is 0928400777.

My SCV is the Bosch item. So my question is - do you think that because my SCV has the Bosch part number- the original Nissan SCV has already been replaced OR do you think it is possible that it came out of the factory fitted with the Bosch SCV? Hope that makes sense.

Also 1 have attached the below pics to show anyone where the SCV is located if that helps.

Cheers

It's difficult to say. My Yamaha FJ1200 had a Mitsubishi fuel pump. It's a matter of cost+availability of supply vs cost of engineering it yourself, I guess. I doubt my own original SCV (which I don't have any more) was a Nissan-manufactured part.

Hell, even my snorkel that has "Nissan" on it is just a rebadged Airtec. It's often cheaper to buy a badge than to engineer the whole thing!

And just because Bosch made the VP44 fuel pump (some D22 models have this and it's reliability is questionable) doesn't mean that everything they make is bad. The SCV experiences we've had may have had something to do with fuel quality - Australia doesn't have the best fuel in the world.

hi to all well I changed the SCV on the V9X and it took around 40 mins pretty straight forward I noticed in the old one on the connection plug inside it had diesel in it replaced with new Boach one and it seems to run a lot smother and much less smoke when flooring it (not that i do that all the time) put the old one under a micro scope and looked deep inside the plug and noticed a crack in the plastic so I would say it was ready to fail at some stage but all good now runs like a dream thanks again Tony for your help
cheers Pete

Hmmm... isn't this the sucker we are talking about? Interesting, I changed mine 3 times in a row, first 2 replacements were faulty new, while the 3rd one worked just fine for 2 months, now it shakes like phone on vibration and emits buzzing sound, which can be heard quite loud in the cabin.

That's the turbo boost control valve.

I am a bit confused.

The mushroom-like valve on my picture, with vacuum line input and vacuum connection to turbo actuator, is electronically managed and as I understand,,this is SCV, Solenoid Control Valve.

But few posts above you were talking aboit SCV, which ahould be located in front of engine.

Are those 2 different things, or just different configurations in different engines?

@Jamesltu, if you look at the engine from the front (V9X) on the right hand side (wheel side) of the engine, near the front, gently move the plumbing out of the way, you will find the SCV. DO NOT DISCONNECT ANY OF THE PLUMBING. It has one electrical connection and a 10mm bolt holding it in. The V6 and four cylinder SCV's are vastly different and not interchangeable. Navara Parts have genuine Nissan part and are reasonably priced.

We also need to get terminology correct to remove confusion.

SCV = Suction Control Valve, it's part of the fuel pump, often an issue on the YD25 engine. It is literally bolted to the fuel pump itself and only has an electrical connection.

BCS = Boost Control Solenoid, it controls vacuum levels going to the actuator of a variable-vane turbocharger. This can basically sit anywhere, has an electrical connection and at least two vacuum hoses depending on the vehicle, one of which will go directly to the top of the actuator on the turbocharger.

Just trying to remove any confusion - there's nothing like walking into the store to get a set of brake pads and walking out with hemorrhoid ointment!

It is just behind the fuel pump RHS engine from front, heaps of plumbing in the way.This is what it looks like...........
Have a look up this page at post #31.
