Hi All,
I've just stripped off my intake to investigate a suspected jammed EGR and yep I've confirmed its jammed partially ( a few mm) open. It wasn't mega crusty inside, just a bit of surface soot.
It started fine but was idling lumpy and smoking, plus I've just run a fault code check and there's presently tons of them :-
P0403 EGR Circuit
P0098
P0113 intake air temp high
P0118 Engine coolant temp
P2017 IMRC position
P0108 Manifold pressure
P1401.
( I'm deducing many stem from the fact the EGR is open ).
Before I go hunting for a replacement, I do note that the EGR is made up of a cast body with a bottom plate and a top plate which the solenoid unit is on. I just wonder has anybody been successful in actually dismantling one ......or will the wise ones here just say "don't waste your time bud, bin it and drop a replacement in"
Some quick opinions please whilst I'm bookmarking some on ebay...
cheers
