Holy Expensive EGR Valve Batman!

Dec 07, 2004 9 Replies

My buddy @ Chevy got an EGR valve sitting there for me, my cost with his discount is $276 + whatever the gasket cost he has to order. Was hoping to get a few more miles out of the original, but its acting up.

The car companies are having difficulty getting the price on new cars. Now even the rebates are not as effective. The vehicles just are not worth it. So they are making a concerted effort to raise prices of parts to make up for it in profit and drive buyers to replace older vehicles. You will be hearing more about this as it develops. I'm thinking of going back to a 60's ride to avoid the prices. I could have a very nice vehicle for less money.

Is that your present car, or a historical monument?

I know it. I sold my 66 Chevy step side pickup with new 327 engine for a grand. Crap that's two months payments for the 03 LT ext cab.

$220 for the valve and a few bucks more for the gasket.

UNLESS you want the factory original, then it will cost you bunches more.
