Best Place To Purchase Borg Warner Solenoid Valves For Al4 Transmissio

[jackafrica]

Hi All,

I would like to find a decent source of the 2574.16 Borg Warner Solenoid Valves to suit the AL4 auto transmission.

Living in Australia, if there a business out there, who will post overseas, please let me know. The solenoid valves are expensive here in Australia, I suspect they are cheaper in the UK nad Europe.

Thanks in advance

 

cheers

Richard

If you can source them from the UK th retail price of the component is £48.37 inc vat each (sept 2008).

 

If you replace this component the computer needs to be checked to confirm the software is of the latest version. Due to the computer controlling the frequency of opening / closing of the valves a new valve with the incorect software will fail very quickly

Figured this would be the case, thanks kfk.

If the valves were replaced, would it be safe to drive the car to a diagnostic centre ?

 

Can the software be checked or updated without going to a Citroen Service Centre ?

 

This is why I have been asking about the scanner diagnostic tools suitable for my 2001 diesel.

 

Is there a friendly source in the UK for the valves ? Someone who sells and prepared to ship direct would save me the VAT at the very least.

 

Thanks for the help.

 

cheers
