Just a quick question to see if anyone could help me with a small egr valve problem. Had a friend run a diagnostics test on a w reg 1.2 16v which came up with the egr valve as a fault, have been to vaux for a price on one and they told me £230, which obviously I'm not too keen on paying, as a one for my 1600 only cost £60.

So, does anyone know where I can get one cheaper, new, or could anyone tell me if the egr from a 1.2 8v would work on it, as I already have a spare one.

Thanks
