Have a cracked EGR pipe on my 2002 1.6 FSI, have been quoted around £470 for part and labour - is that reasonable? They tried to look at some kind of patch repair, but need to get it out to do it so might as well replace.

Hello All, I appreciate this has been covered to death and everyone's probably sick of this topic. I have searched through an extensive archive of 'mooing' threads but many are over 5 years old and or are people speculating or saying that the have the same issue but no real solutions being...
