EGR clean up!

[Grimo72]

hi

following a couple of threads on here, about lack of power at low revs, after cleaning my car i thought i would have a quick look at my EGR valve

wow what a shock, bearing in mind my car is 56 reg 30k miles on it

have a look at pics

cleaned it all out, refitted it all

started car up, started up easier, it was quieter and it felt like the car was running better

anyway took car for spinn, 110% better no suuden jolt when turbo kicked in

cheers chaps

As for how you get the plug off - lol, well - the yello tag pulls back a bit, then you press in the grey plug and pull... it takes some pulling tho...
