BOSCH 0280142308 Vapor Canister Purge Valve

Amazing OEM quality product. This was very easy to install, and took about 30 mins from start to finish. My 2003 Volkswagen Passat Wagon (2.8L V6), was throwing a P0171, and P0174 code. After replacing a rear O2 sensor, and PCV hose (these were necessary), the vehicle still threw out those same codes. After resetting the MIL, and allowing it to cycle through, I received a new code, P0401, which was associated with the EGR system. Apparently this Purge valve is a known issue on these vehicles and can cause system lean, system rich and or an egr system error depending on the issue with the valve. Upon installing the new purge valve, my MIL and pending DTC disappeared. This fixed my emissions problem, and the car passed inspection. If you're experiencing anything like this, check all your vaccuum hoses and replace any damaged ones. If you're 100% certain there aren't any leaks, then your purge valve is most likely the culprit.

I got a check engine light pop up for my 2001 4.6L Range Rover. After scanning the codes, It was a P0455 - Evap control system large leak detected. After some searching around I was pointed to the purge valve as a possible culprit. So, I took my old one out, hooked it to a manual vacuum gauge and quickly determined that it would not hold any sort of vacuum. So, it was a quick determination that the purge valve was bad. Ordered this one up and performed the same test before installing, and it held vacuum with no problems. Installed this new one, completed drive cycle C and the code was no longer active. Cleared codes and it has not come back for a couple of months now. At this price, I would definitely recommend.

It works perfectly and got rid of the code for good.

Pretty easy to install. Works perfectly and fixed my evap error code. Be aware the the tube that attaches to the right side has a mounting piece in it that makes it impossible to remove without cutting the hose. If you are buying this part for a VW/Audi you may want to see if they offer it with the hoses already attached. Otherwise you will end up having to replace the hose once you realize it can't be reused or trying to cut it off an have to patch it back on with adhesive.

Good quality

I ordered this part from Euromarque Automotive Parts LLC and when I got it..it was a MTC Brand. When I emailed them they told me that it was because the Bosch Brand valve was currently out of stock. I tried to do a price match but the MTC Brand is a wholesale dealer and wont let you view prices without a account. Im guessing that it doesn't cost the same as the Bosch brand.Update: As of Nov 13th since the distributor sent me a part that did not meet my requirements Euromarque Automotive has refunded the cost for my part.

Engine diagnostics indicated a bad purge valve, tried cleaning the existing one but valve was bad. Ordered this one from Amazon, fitted it and the next day check engine light came back. Thought it was something more serious so went to mechanic. Turned out the valve I purchased from amazon was bad, and mechanic replaced it, unfortunatley he'd trashed the one I had purchaced from Amazon as I neglected to ask for return of old parts. Very disapointed with this puchase.

This Bosch purge flow valve works for '98 Audi A6 Quattro and solves code P0441 issue. Not sure why Amazon.com says it does not fit the car model while many other web sites confirm it will fit. Glad the issue has been resolved
