Good morning All sorry had no time to search I’m late for work, can anyone post me the part number for the OEM EGR valve complete or advise best place to buy 1.
Thanks in advance.

Dear all on another topic which I think is linked to this I have a 2006 T5 2.5 Sandhurst Autosleeper, but of late I have noticed a smell in cabin area of fumes, could this be again the EGR valve, thanks in advance.

TPS is prob best for genuine parts if they will let you buy (trade only)
 
Mine is in at VW whilst they investigate a coolant leak. I know where it’s coming from.
Anyway they rang to say the seal between the cooler and the rear casting (valve) has failed so it needs a new egr assembly.
Is it right that it can’t be separated and the seal replaced?
Seems ludicrous that it’s nearly a grand for a failed seal.

If VW can source a seal to build the assembly the seal can be supplied individually, it’s a case of if VW want to.
You could try going down the ’Green’ route and suggest that it is not exactly a sustainable procedure, which it isn’t.
The seal will be on a Material List for the EGR unit and it will give the size and specification.

I’ve had suppliers who refuse to supply sub-components so they can sell more high value parts. Once we started sourcing sub-components elsewhere and carrying out our own repairs they threatened to stop all supplies.
Accountants and lawyers run business these days.

Exactly. It’s just a case of making money by supplying the complete unit. I don’t have the ability or patience to remove the unit myself and attempt to disassemble it so it’s time to find someone to replace it for less than £860+vat
