Following on from my last post about DPF regens, I think I will clean out the EGR - if it's anything like my previous 1.9 Vauxhall it will need doing. Car has done 97K with FSH.
I tried removing the intake hose and spraying down into the pipe, but the engine repeatedly died after only a brief squirt. Does anyone have tips on how to remove the EGR valve for a full clean (and presumably the throttle body as well)? I can't find anything online.
No dashboard lights currently on, but I did get an EML light on the first day - recovery tech. said it was EGR, but cleared it and it hasn't returned - yet!
Help very much appreciated.
