Thanx, just done mine and used Mr Muscle oven cleaner. It worked a treat then rinse off with brake/ carb cleaner !!

tackling my clk egr tomorrow, going on a family holiday in a couple of days and garages are too busy to take it in , slackening the bolts and running the engine is a great tip and your video has given me the confidence to have a go , thanks for sharing👍

Ah, maybe try undoing it just slightly and really giving it some revs! It wont go anywhere so dont be afraid. Alternatively, take bolts fully out and try hitting it to rotate it with a rubber mallet, rotational force seems to break it free as well. Good luck!

while it is still on the car you can take the plastic cover off the back and clean out the carbon dust out and clean and oil the workings and check that it is not stuck also if you take to code off you will see iof it works by just revving the engine while someone looks ,,,,it is as easy as that ,no need to take it off as it looks like a maintenance thing to do anyway, it is to the right hand side looking at it standing in front of the car .

Thanks for that!

nice video, but what do you advice, if your step don't work and valve hold like welded. My last idea - remove both screws and full gas 🙂, but seems little risky.

@Enginesetc

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks! What I'd recommend is just backing off the screws maybe halfway, full gas like you say. Leave them in a little bit as you dont want the EGR valve flying somewhere into space! You can also try if that doesn't work, hitting the valve rotationally using a soft hammer or a hammer and a soft interface i.e. block of wood. Rotational force really helps!

@elitearambai986

Full gas didn't worked. Even without any screws in. I was able to rotate it but it's still stuck inside. Also kinda easy to move it counter-clockwise but akward to move it clockwise back because there is a hose in the way. Any more ideas?

@@Enginesetc I removed and cleaned the EGR valve, but there was something loose inside it moving around when i handled it, tried to put it back on but the car behaves the same way as before. So i guess i need a new one. But mercedes said the new one has to be calibrated, and there are so many different brands of EGR valves that supposedly fit this car. But i'm not sure if the brand matters or not?

Ah might be a broken component then sadly :( If you can find a good condition used one maybe that would be a decent option from a trusted breaker? Alternatively I'd say at the end of the day choose a mid range brand and go for it. It's essentially just a motor moving an arm in and out dependant on throttle input so nothing crazy but the motor has to last more than 5 minutes like a cheap chinese one might give you!@@Wormweed

Possibly if it's really clogged up but not in my experience. I'd say look for a boost leak as usually black smoke can come from that. if no obvious signs may be worth having a smoke test done as its cheap enough.
