I have recently had a light come on my dashboard and taken my car into audi where I was informed that I need a low pressure egr valve. I am just looking for any advice about where I can get this done other than audi. 

Or is it worth paying the extra money and having the work done at audi ??

Hi its been a running battle with these things they are a disgrace mine went last year and Audi wanted £1700 to do it, they only sell the part with the new valve attached £700 or there about, see if you can find a VAG specialist to give you a quote, an oe part with the valve is on eBay at the moment for around £500, the part number is 04L 512 For the cooler and 04L 131 501 B for the valve.

Is for diesel engine? 

Hi yes Diesel engine, all the 2.0 litre models around that time CNHA,DETA etc. are fitted with them, allegedly they should last 100k but I have first hand knowledge of some that have gone at 30k.

....also have same problem. car 2017 2.0 190ps tdi, 57,000 miles. Audi quote was £££s, local garage said they have replaced lots of these on audi diesels, as low as 30,000 miles.

Now booked in to be replaced by local garage for a much better price with genuine parts. Car currently not being driven as started to feel hesitation when lightly accelerating. Two week wait for repair, which I don't mind.

Probably buy a petrol next next car!!
