Has anyone got a spare EGR valve lying around for the GMC at all - just caled JWR and almost fell off me chair when they said almost 300 QUID for it!
Yeah i know i could order one from Rock Auto (for around 100 dollar inc shipping) or equivillant but would very much prefer to get it sooner rather than later but not pay through the nose for it!!!
If all else fails, i prob end up ordering from EBay.COM as there plenty on there for 50-80 dollars
cant you bypass it for now ?
ian, rock auto deliver in around 2 days.
and ive been told you can clean an egr valve by leaving it sat in a bowl of brake fluid for 24 hours, wether its true or not i dont know.

Can't you 'stick' the gasket to the valve before installing it? Bit of grease or silicone on the edge?
hmm tis a possibility...
Think i gunna end up buying a new one from EBay.com as there is a brand new one, EXACTLY the same part the rockauto are selling, currently going for 59 dollar BIN...just working out shipping costs....
