M44 DISA Valve - Parts??

[Sumilidon]

Hi all.

On my list of many things, I am looking to replace / renew the DISA valve as the car is now 26 years old and it's never been touched (in fact the car is about 99% original). I can see refurbished parts on ebay as well as some listings for the membranes but after watching a video on how to do the rebuild, there was a question of quality raised (notably around the smaller, orange membrane).

Does anyone have any suggestions for reputable sellers they have used themselves?

I've not used the DISA kit from these people, but I did use the Vanos repair kit including all the gaskets and no problems at all.

It’s a different Disa for an M44. Getting the membranes and doing it yourself is fiddly. There are some good refurbed units on eBay if you just want a bolt on solution
