It's an overflow/pressure regulator
Ci,
I am pretty sure this valve has two functions as opposed to previous models where it only acts as a pressure regulator.
Firstly it's just a hole inside the bolt, there is no spring/ball affair to regulate pressure only the diameter of the hole itself.
MB state it's an 'overflow' valve, this I think is accurate and refers to the ball that can be seen in the head of the bolt (picture below).
(the new bolt on the left has a protective wax inside)
