Help from any US member close to Dealer.

[Bigglezworth]

Boost problems on my end. Have changed the Divertor valves and going to change the N75 valve and all rubber hoses. Local CDN dealer wants to soak me for $185.00+tax for N75 valve. I find it impossible to believe they cost this much for my fellow members south of the border. Would appreciate any member close to a dealer to confirm price for an N75 replacement and if you are then able to purchase on my behalf after I send you money for the purchase price and airmail shipping to Calgary, AB.

PM me or email me at Bigglezworth@shaw.ca.

Thanks in advance.

go to audipartsdepot.com, I got mine for aroun $80. Create an account and they should give you a discount.

P3u, which valve did you get? The stock is the "C" valve I think and everywhere I look that one seems to cost more. The "H" & "J" always cost less. Grizz recommended to stay with the stock valve as I was tempted to try the one of the others so I just replaced mine with stock. I have an extra "H" valve laying around for my 225bhp tt (H is the stock valve) and I may give it a try in the RS6 soon.

I have the stock valve, no point in messing around with different valves, esp when I don't know what the different ones will do :P

Tim,

Did you get what you needed?

I would try Kyle at fastaudivwparts. He lives up in WA state and has deep discounts on all Audi VW parts. You need a good hookup close to your area.

I would help you but I am at the wrong end of the border...

[Bigglezworth]

Guys. Don't need anyone near the border. Just need someone in the US that can purchase from an Audi Dealer at a better price than I'm getting raped for here. I'm one of those kinds of guys that goes the distance on a matter of principle when I feel I'm getting the shaft just because of where I live. Opportunistic companies. We have a lot of them here in Calgary. Airmail takes care of distance. :)

The reason for soliciting a board member is that few companies like to take the extra effort to go past a post office to mail something. Many others that will mail to you will only use the UPS crap which is nothing short of arduous for cross border shipping. A $80.00 part costs me $50.00 in brokerage with UPS vs. an $80.00 part that costs me the price of shipping with USPS....

Anyway like I said if anyone can purchase for me and ship after I wire or mail them payment that would be greatly appreciated. At a minimum if anyone can phone their local Audi dealership and confirm what they cost and whether my principle effort is really worth it that would be apprecated.

Thanks in advance.

I tend to agree with your thoughts.

I would give Kyle a email. You get the best price and I am sure he will send to Canada.

fastaudivwparts @ yahoo.com

For example, he has new Audi rotors for 250ea. 400 at the dealer.
