    Wanted: broken DISA valve

    Ordered the repair kit from German Auto Solutions, would like to find a 'broken' DISA valve to repair and have ready to install. Don't know what's reasonable, but would prefer to not spend a lot (would kind of negate the point of the rebuild!) Anybody got an old one they'd part with??

    Thanks,
    Dave

    I do, and it actually still works if the holding suction test is any indication, but has 90k+ miles on it. I replaced it as preventative. Not sure what is reasonable either.

    Sell it for the same price that G.A.S buys broken units.

    Thanks NorCal....that's more than I want to spend on a broken part. Think I'll just remove the current one and rebuild it. Thanks for the effort and offer though.
