I tried using Wynn's EGR cleaner. The add to fuel type and forget about. Next week I took my EGR off the car took it in my kitchen to clean properly using "elbow grease" from pound world (I've used every degreaser on the planet and this is the best). Anyway the EGR was a solid lump of sticky carbon inside. No way could the valve open or close.. Soaked it in elbow grease for half hour. Boiled kettle and poured it over. Result nice and clean. Valve moves nice and freely now..I've blanked the EGR now. 20% better fuel efficiency..the brim it drive for 400 miles and brim it again test..4 times I've done that now..amazed at the results. Engines like clean cool air not dirty warm air. .

My own car is a 16 year old Mercedes with a mileage of 170000 miles. I had been having a similar problem with no power so decided to buy a similar kit her in the Shetland Islands in the UK. Even though I used only half a can of aerosol I have had no more problems, back on full power once again. Many thanks for uploading this video.

There are some that are making negative comments .The purpose of this was to show how the proses works without having to take the EGR valve out, and was taken out as an observation.I have a vehicle that requires the engine to be taken out to change the EGR valve so for me this video proved invaluable thanks for posting

I was contemplating these products but decided to have a go at cleaning the EGR on my 100K 2.0d X-Type myself. I sort of thought that if I struggled getting it off I could tighten everything back up and use the spray anyway. With some excellent, easy to find help on some of the Jag forums I found the valve much easier to remove than I expected using just a 1/4" ratchet with long & short extensions and 8/10mm sockets. The condition of the valve convinced me that manual cleaning (half an hour with a couple of litres of paraffin, some non-metallic scourers and a pound store washing up brush) was the only way to go. There is no solvent I know (certainly none that I'm prepared to unleash indiscriminately) which could have shifted the gunge and tar. Even if it did I cannot conceive of it passing harmlessly through the engine, turbo, cat and exhaust. The opening to the inlet manifold was also similarly treated. Total time two hours. Would have been less if I'd remembered to refit the bl@@dy EGR inlet gasket. In fact the job was so easy (plenty of PVC gloves needed though) that I decided against tinkering with the EGR system. I'll just repeat the process as and when necessary. Can't be bothered with engine management warnings and the like. I may consider using a spray to maintain the condition of the valve but I doubt it. They may have their place but I really would not feel comfortable relying on something which just moves the muck further along the system. Incidentally the cleanup completely cured my rough idle. Improved bottom end torque and made the driving experience much more pleasurable. No more Hail Marys prior to entering a busy roundabout with a full load.

Same technique as in the video shown, warm the engine then squirt oven cleaner at a rate of a second a squirt until spray can is empty. Turn off engine for an hour to let oven cleaner do it's job. Turn engine on until to operating temperature, squirt water in slowly about 500mL was enough for my car. The water mist works as water get in there it will generate steam and the steam action clean out the carbon build up. I did that procedure twice although it was 2 months apart. Now, after 5 months, my VW Golf 2005 is revving nicely and no longer in "limp" mode.

on your can take a piece of speedo cable ot some sort or hard wire and shove it down the EGR passage into the intake its plugged up

introducing all that "cleaner" into the engine will do damage by wiping the bearing surfaces. The part can be bought fairly cheaply. If you are going to the trouble of removing it either replace it or at least clean it manually.

Truth of the matter is even If your egr valve is "dirty" but functioning most likely, except for the sake of regular maintenance no need to Clean it. Case in point, i have a 1987 nissan truck with over 200,000 miles on it and since i have owned it for the last 12 years (and since i have owned it the egr valve has never been replaced) it has always pass egr/pcv smog check. Up to this point.

Отличная работа

Well, it kinda work, if you can access the EGR valve for removal, then better remove it and clean it or simply replace it. On some cars the access to the EGR valve is quite complicate, so i can see myself using it.

Terry Morton Doesn't it have warranty? I'd check the wiring just in case, seems like a loose plug if the part itself is not defective. Just unplug it and re-plug for a few times to clean oxide off the metal surface and spray a tincy bit of WD-40 on the terminals of the plug and put it back in. I live in moisty climate and terminals tend to oxidate here and there from time to time.

Even older engines had EGR valves. This engine seems very similar to the Ford 1.8 TDI found in the 1998 mondeo. Mechanical fuel pump and EGR valve controlled by a vacuum solenoid. There is no ECU either, all fully mechanical. Injectors are triggered by the shaft position on the fuel pump an can be adjusted by the adjustment screw on front of the pump. The EGR valve can simply be disabled by disconnecting and closing of the vacuum hose.
