Yes they die. Usually the diaphragm ruptures meaning the piston doesn't have equalizing pressure on one side and it blows open when on boost. in this case it usually is idenifiable as a vacuum leak with no known source (it sucks from inside the
bov chamber).
Are you thinking that the problem with your scoob Rich?
