Is it dangerous to keep driving with this valve faulty?

Depends on what it controls — a boost-related fault should be addressed promptly to avoid turbo or engine damage, while other applications may be less urgent.

Can this valve be cleaned instead of replaced?

In some cases, yes — carbon or debris buildup can cause sticking, and cleaning can sometimes restore normal operation.

What is the valve made of?

A compact solenoid with a plastic and metal housing.

I ordered a Heater Blower Motor Resistor for a Toyota Avensis. Delivery took eight days from Latvia to Ireland. I installed it, and everything works perfectly. I wish this company success.

No complaints about Evro Trans itself, everything's fine. But the delivery..... It felt like the order was being carried by turtles. 4 days from Riga to Daugavpils. Judging by the tracking, the parcel just sat somewhere behind a shed for 3 days, then they found it and delivered it the next day. I think that's why I won't be ordering there again.

Bought a front fender for my car. I liked it! After payment they sent more than 20 photos of the problem areas, and it was packed very securely - took a while to unwrap.
