OEM EGR valves vs "aftermarket"

Hi guys,

So, EGR valves have inevitably gone and I am MY2009 so no blanking for me... Rolling Eyes

My question is, is there a real difference between the OEM/Bearmach parts (LR018323 and 4) and say the Advanced Factors Eurospares versions for half the price (£200 vs £100).

Rapid advice appreciated as I need to order one or another urgently! Many thanks!

Blank 'em Thumbs Up

A little bit more work / cost. But can be done and end of problems.

I can't. It's EU4/DPF. Unless you know of a way I haven't found?

Mine is eu4.
I have emulators and ecu patch. Can be done with just patch. Have a look on BAS website.



Edit: just seen you've added dpf...

I have looked at BAS already, with the DPF I don't think I can patch it to work. But willing to be educated!

Just to say AF said the cheaper valves were identical to the "genuine" Bearmach ones so went for those. So far so good!
