EGR Valve Installation
 

how easy/hard would it be to install an EGR valve on my 01 v6 bird? the dealer just called me and said he wants $293.23 plus tax to order it and install it, the thing is i can get the EGR valve from autozone for $130, would i be able to do it in my driveway or do u need special **** to do it?

I've seen a few used egr's go for 5-10 on fbv6...i would say look there for the new few weeks...otherwise just delete it :shrug: but thats me.

i already ordered it from autozone, my brother knows one of the guys there and i got it for $103 my brothers gonna install it for me tomorrow

yeah when i got erics car it had no egr so i was contemplating on putting one on or not...then i saw the prices & realized I could tune the car for nearly the same price lol. I did see a used one for $5 though that i contemplated...in the end it was $5 id rather have in my pocket ;)

looks like i might not need a new one after all, i drove it home from millville (15 mins away) and then took the long way home and tested her out a lil and she didnt throw a code. needless to say i was pretty happy :) that might be another $100 in my pocket, the final test will be when i drive up to wayne and back on tuesday

lol, cool, hope it works out for ya...but wasnt your car running like ****? Did you figure out what that was?

clogged cat, bastards wanted to charge me $723 for labor and installation luckly it was under warranty or i would of flipped the **** out and told them to take it the hell off!! :lol: and i thought almost $300 for ordering and installing the EGR was bad!
