Just thought that I would pass on some info,if you don`t know this already,that as the Ford Galaxy and the VR6 engine is one and the same.

Which you probably as I did knew anyway but my point is the price of parts.I had to replace the breather valve on my VR6 and went to VW dealers for said part.

"That`ll be £77 please" said parts bloke.

"That`ll be right" said I.

So on the advice of someone from CGTI forum I went to Ford dealers showed the guy an ETOS pic of part and got it identified.

"That`ll be £25 please"

:)

A slight difference to say the least.

So maybe others can add their list of parts available from Ford which are vastly priced different to save us all a few quid.

Dave.

Edit.just done search and it is old news.But still would be interested to know of other parts available.

You do get more for your money from VW. But if the other parts don't need replacing, why pay?

My local Ford dealer is getting know me quite well ;-) At least they've stopped looking at me funny when I say '1992' in responce to 'what year?'
