Is there a rebuild kit for these heater control valves like there is for the E28's?? Mine is shot and I need to see if there is a rebuild kit available.

Did this yesterday and when you are prying the valve away from the core, put some paper towel or newspaper down, or coolant will leak all over your carpet.
Oh and on the square nuts superglue them in place on the new heater core to prevent them from falling out while trying to reattach the valve to the core

Thanks for jogging my memory - maybe that'll help someone else.
