It is very easy to replace and in order to replace it you need a 10mm socket and a philips screwdriver. This valve is very primitive because it consists of a solenoid and a rubber membrane, so I would try Amazon because you can always return it as defective.

I had to repost this because thotboi took it down and told me to use Google. Guess what you knob it’s not on Google and if anyone can tell me that I violated terms aside from me calling him a knob just now let me know. I appreciate the one guy that did give me a useful answer I tried to reply thanks

 

The reason the canada amazon 30$cad purge solenoid is so cheap compared, more likely, to the other '...130 usd anywheres else...' is because it is, in your words, '...a pos.', IMHO.
36162-RMX-A01 Genuine Acura Purge Control Solenoid Valve Assembly (acurapartswarehouse.com)
The $130 unit is most likely an OEM part; therefore, it is more expensive.
The trick to beating the OEM price charged by dealerships is to (for instance)
1) remove the current purge solenoid from your 2012 TL,
2) examine the outside plastic to see if there is any type of manufacturer brand naming present (a part # would be good)
3) if there is said brand naming present, then SOMETIMES you can find the same part priced substantially lower (for instance at rockauto) and still get the more expensive OEM part without paying the inflated dealer marked up price.
Get what I'm saying?

Great examples of this are:
Timing belt kits
coil over plug ignitors
oxygen sensors
fuel injectors
MTF & ATF & coolant fluids et al.

Now, if there are no indicators on the part of who makes it or you can't find out who makes the OEM part by utilizing critical thinking skills & by performing a proactive online search, then you have choices to make.
1) Cough up the cash for the OEM part, which is usually of better quality (especially with sensors), and less likely to give you short term problems and you are done.
OR
2) Choose some '...pos...' foreign made aftermarket knockoff, at a third of the price, & 'roll the dice' on its performance reliability and longevity.
It's really that simple.
