You’re very welcome mate.

Great video, my car occasionally performs like someone has stole the turbo until yesterday I got the engine warning light which when I checked with the torque app and Bluetooth obd related to egr issues. I'll be cleaning it using your video tutorial. Saved me a trip to the stealers, many thanks

Hi Deano Taggo, if you have dpf issues I think it’ll show as error on the dash. I’m sorry I’m not a piston head to say if blocked valve can make your car lose power but I don’t think it will help the engine as the egr valve is like a breather for the engine and if it’s not opening and closing properly it’s not healthy for the engine. I’m sorry I wasn’t more help and hope someone with the knowledge can shed more light on it and correct me if I’m wrong.

Could you just use a electrical contact cleaner to clean it out? Or is the Soot build up too tough?

Great video

Many thanks for video.

do you need to clean it if there are no problems to be sure ore not?

So maybe in exhaust cholera system is woerst? This is obły valve, but masy mess is before valve?

hello sir please do you know i can locate the side detection sensor on this car i have the same car and thats not working for me know thanks

Thank you for your time

Rac came out and manually requested switch to clear it. And car started but I expect I still need to clean and they dont clean themselves. I've been losing power you see, maybe dpf filter, exhaust issue??

How can this be done on a MkII insignia B?

I’m sorry for the late reply I haven’t been able to access my YT account for a long time, but answer to your question unless the gasket is damaged or worn out you don’t need to change it obviously it’s better if you change it for a new one but if your current one is in good condition you don’t need to I just used the old one and didn’t change it.

what kind of force you used when you tighten the screw

@pchussain

3 жыл бұрын

Enough force to make sure it’s good and tight but not so tight where you feel it can’t be undone without damaging the bits or the bolts, I didn’t use a torque wrench but I made sure they are tight enough without over doing it. Hope that helps

I've removed the 2 bolts for the egr valve, but it seems to be stuck and won't budge. I've read on a forum to tap it gently with a hammer. Any ideas?

@pchussain

3 жыл бұрын

It must be stuck good’n’proper, yes you might have to tap it ever so gently on both sides to loosen it, I would recommend spraying wd40 on where it’s stuck to the engine and use the handle of the hammer to hit it and if you’ve got a hammer with rubber on the handle it’s ideal, but once again you’ll have to be gentle so you don’t damage the egr value.

Make sure you disconnect the battery 1st before anythng. Mainly for personal safety, but also because the ECU will reboot meaning you don't need to relearn.

Had a car for over 2 years and always smokie, bad in fuel, no power, no fault code .. Took it to dozens places, no result.. Apparently it was dirty map sensor!!

You can use purpose made egr cleaners but it won't get all the grime and soot depositon built up overtime, you can clean it up this way then use the purpose made egr cleaners to keep it clean and healthy, personally I just take it off and clean it once a year this way and never had any problems with egr valve and igs quite therapeutic too.

Why comes water outside of mine egr?

It might be that the gasket of the egr leaking so you might need to replace the gasket when you clean it and make sure it’s a tight fit
