P1110 problems with charge air valve
I have a 2001 9-3. I have replaced the vacuum hoses, replaced the charge air vavle twice, and replaced the selenoid that is housed on the drivers dide near the brake fluid container and I am still getting the p1110 code. I do not know what to check next. Has anyone else had this problem? and were you able to get it fixed?

I have eliminated this problem by replacing the turbo by-pass valve, but it sounds as if you already did this twice. There is a triangular shaped controller with three hoses pinned to the top of the turbo inlet pipe, for which I forget its correct name, that is part of the system. There is also a pressure sensor on the inlet pipe going from the intercooler to the throttle body.
I am not advocating just throwing parts at the problem, but rather there are a couple more potential culprits that need to be looked at.
Boost control valve $43
Intake pressure sensor $75

Replace all dry rotted vacuum hoses - and ensure they are all connected properly and are the right size and quality. Also be sure you don't have any leaks - anywhere.

Check the diaphragm of the new valve. I've had suppliers send inferior valves and diaphragms break quickly...probably chinese bosch ripoffs.
