EGR valve

[halistan]

Ok, so my SVX has been at the rebuilders for like a month now. They FINALLY have it done but today they call me and tell me that they still get an error for the EGR valve. They were going to replace it but they called around and said that it wasn't available. I called the dealership here as well as subaruparts.com and neither of them could get it either. They said it is discontinued by Subaru.

I checked O'reillys and Autozone. O'reilly's is discontinued, but autozone has it. The mechanic recommended against using either of those because i'd have to just replace it the next year and told me to keep looking and see if i can find an OEM part.

Any ideas anyone? It would suck to drop all this money on an engine rebuild and not be able to finally drive the car because I can't get it inspected!! How much would that suck??
