Boost sensor lubricating type?

[SlowCoach]

I'm gonna take apart the boost sensor thing, but want to get right lubrication to use after cleaning the unit and lubricating the piston inside to ensure long term lubrication.

Hope someone can help here. Thanks

Sounds more like the egr fella the boost sensor has some fine filaments and sends an electrical signal out. Check the how 2 for dismantling the egr and lubricating it.

Yeah meant Boost Control Solenoid!! Lol i was typing it last night have asleep! Pmsl

What type of stuff??

Maybe either plain old boring grease, or if you have some some silicone grease (like you should use on caliper slider bolts)? Imagine it will only need the lightest of smears to prevent corrosion and keep things moving freely in the long term.

How about a smear of copper grease? The copper is the lubricant and it does not normally go hard.
