Default Purge Control Valve N80

The engine light showed up on my Audi A4, 1.8 turbo, 2005. The part at VW is $200 installed but I found an after market part of the valve for $50 and at another place for $174. Is the $50 part legit or should I stay with the VW part?

Is this something that i should replace ASAP or i can drive the car and replaced when i can

It depends on WHO makes that $50 part.

As far as driving it, shouldn't be a probem. The EVAP system just keeps excess gasoline fumes from reaching the atmosphere, it doesn't affect the engine....affects the enviroment, but not your engine LOL.
