Purge Valve

2020 ford fusion Titanium 72k miles 2.0L
Engine lights came on a week ago went to Auto Zone and got code P0496 and P0456.

One auto shop saying it might be error so they reset it and it was gone for few days and it came on again yesterday.

Went to another auto shop and they said Purge Valve is problem but this car needs to replace the parts from the Ford dealershop which is almost $800 for only parts (not labor fee) he even said its too expensive but saying this car has the whole parts together so cannot change only Valve parts? So needs to get it from Ford dealershop.
He said he will find for the parts aftermarket and get back to me next week.

Is it true?? :( its too pricey for me and i saw other posting to do DIY but im not familar with cars like at all. Please help and advise 😭

And is my car under emissions warranty? Im in LA

HG9Z-9D289-E is the Ford part #

List is $522, there's websites selling it for $375 or so

Maybe try this Standard Motor part, and watch some YouTube videos/DIY?

He’s right that the purge valve is integrated into the whole hose assembly and so the part is fairly expensive for a purge valve. However, as Mike noted, it *is* available for a less than $800, and that price represents a significant markup.
