N80 purge valve location

[Grapo]

Looking to change the n80 valve on my girlfriends 1.4 sport but can't for the life of my find it!

Can anyone point me in the right direction, preferably with a photo or diagram?

Thanks

Is it not on top of the RHS wheel arch area, under the bonnet, mounted in a soft rubber mounting - if it is it the petrol fumes purging thing you are referring to, well I seem to remember that is where it is on the 9N Polo and can't think of any good reason why they would move it.

I can't find keys for daughter's Beeza to check, sorry!

Update, 9N Polo 1.4 has it mounted onto the coolant expansion tank.

Still can't see it.

Anyone spot it in this shot:

I know what it looks like as I have a replacement ready to be fitted

Is it not the unit under that plastic bag in the tube just behind your coolant expansion tank.

I pulled that plastic bag out which is just some padding and there are some lines going right down so I don't think it's the N80 valve. Hmmm

have a look here - http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3145942

The golf engine seems to have it at the opposite end to where you are looking

And look at page 7 in this doc - http://www.volkspage.net/technik/ssp/ssp/SSP_296_d1.pdf

Thanks for taking a look, but can't seem to match up anything in that golf link with what's under the ibiza bonnet.

Hopefully someone who has replaced this valve will stumble across this thread and offer some assistance

Has no one replaced this on the mk5 before??
