Should have asked too - if I can get the valve sorted, does the system need regassed again?

Yes. Replacing the valve requires the gas to be recovered first before the sytem is opened to the atmosphere. :y

Cheers Andy. Ordered the valve today. Fiver plus vat as previously mentioned. Can't understand why stealer didn't know about it.
And thanks Den. I'll give Greenaways a shout in the morning and see what's what. I'll give grumpy a shout too, though not sure if he has managed to get sorted as yet himself.

He's not on his own. My dealer couldn't find it & it appears that others are adamant that the valve isn't available on its own. Thanks again to Andy C for the number, but even then, because it doesn't appear to a normal GM part number some dealers it seems reluctant to believe it.   :y

You, you old fart  ;D
Only joking pal. Glad you finally got sorted out at the bank. I take there is a compensation cheque in the post ..............  ::)

I know Andy, it's weird! I just rang the parts dept, gave them the number, and hey presto  :y
