Go underneath, look at the back of the engine on the drivers side, you'll see the turbo, the DV is bolted to the turbo with 3 Allen keys.

It's because it's the most efficient place to put a DV, the old 1.8t used to have the DV on a turbo pipe but that sometimes lead to turbo stall :-)

Just 3 Allen keys bud, easier on a ramp I suppose :-)
