    Default Costly EGR

    Does an EGR Valve really cost 108.00 or am I getting ripped off?

    Took the EGR off and found no carbon build up. Cleaned up and re-installed. If it still turns the EGR air flow malfunction code whats next?

    If you shop at NAPA ask for the Delphi branded EGR. If you got your original price from NAPA they quoted you the Echlin Brand. The Delphi will be cheaper but most stores don't stock the Delphi stuff.

    If it still throws the EGR code, either the EGR itself is actually bad (unlikely) or you've got a blocked EGR passage.
