Faulty PSE vacuum valve

Noticed that my pse doesn't seem to be as quiet as it used to be when it is turned off.

Checked the valves to make sure they are closing and getting vacuum and found that one of them simply goes loose when it it is turned off (ie turned to quiet). It is clearly getting vacuum, as when the pse is on (loud), it is spring loaded open, but when on quiet you can freely move the valve open and closed (ie the exhaust valve isn't firmly locked into place closed).

Anyone had this problem before?
 
Seems like Peter had exactly the same problem: https://www.porscheclubgb.com/forum/fb.asp?m=584806

The thread shows how he fixed it.
 
Well there you go, the answer is always out there somewhere! Thanks Richard. Seems like exactly what has happened will get myself a new vacuum unit. Looks like an easy enough fix.
