Is there a good reliable place to get them from - for example TPUK do Denso ones for about £90 for the pair.
Are these genuine and worth getting or should I get them from my local Ford dealer?
Cheers guys.

Why not buy the PRV?

This is what I don't understand about issues like this - a well respected company like PF Jones that sells genuine quality SCV, and junk PRV. I don't get the logic!
I understand ebay - it's a crap shoot, and photo on a listing of a genuine part or genuine part box means absolutely nothing.

Yes, it seems strange that a company would risk its reputation/sales selling sub standard items alongside it`s "proper" stuff.

I just spoke to the sales director who runs the diesel department and asked where our PRV are sourced from, his reply
" all parts are genuine and either sourced direct from the manufacturer IE Bosch, Denso etc or third parties which we are under NONE DISCLOSURE CONTRACTS with"
The usages for this year show over 800 sold, with a return rate of around 0.3%.
I then spoke to some of the diesel fitters in our workshop and they explained why a PRV would fail " due to over tightening to the common rail system".
Karl to make public claims that we are purchasing fake, inferior items and then selling these on to the general public is both misleading and damaging to our reputation as a company. This is addressed in UK Law by the libel laws, if this was to get to court we would merely need to produce receipts proving where and when we purchased the PRV values and your claims would be seen for what they are "Untrue".
Can you provide proof to back up your claim? IE Our company purchasing receipts.
The fact that you encountered a problem is not proof that we are as you stated "because the are sh*t copies and cause loads of problems".
