raskL Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Can't work it out from pics sorry mate, follow the intercooler pipe to turbo and it should be near there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 The EGR is attached directly to the Inlet Manifold. It's under here i believe. This is what you're looking for- Look for this unit as this is the EGR cooler and is attached to the EGR where the blue ring is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Sayer Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Thanks for the help. May just leave it as it seems a big job to remove it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 It does appear to be a bit of a faff but the EGR is only held on with a cable connector, 2 bolts to the cooler and a single pipe. Alternatively try running through some BG244 additive, very good at engine cleaning. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BG244-BG-244-Pro-Diesel-Injector-Engine-Cleaner-/370619010249?pt=UK_Vehicle_Oils_Lubricants_Fluids&hash=item564a9d4cc9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEADS Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 If its the puegeot engine remove the scuttle panel and at the rear right hand side you will see the egr stainless steel pipe going to it can be a bit fiddly to unbolt but should take no longer than ten minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kye Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Has anyone got a picture of the EGR unit and connections at all? I've fitted a plate on my 10 reg with 15000 miles a day after it was serviced and the oil is filthy black two weeks later. The car doesn't seem to be doing much different from when I was driving it without the plate. is there somewhere else I can put the plate at all? It is currently under the flange you can see at the end of the pipe going to the back of the engine. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v371/Kyebromley/20140909_181317_zps581d3fd1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 2007 2.0 tdci and the egr is at the back of the engine near the top on the right hand side in Front of the bulk head, you can trace the metal pipe from the inlet manifold at the front. disconect live from battery and protect. Locate and remove egr coolant pipe from egr cooler a small Spring clip for easier access you may lose a tiny bit of coolant Remove clip mount in middle of long pipe mounted on top of the engine Removing appears to be easy unscrew torques from pipe that goes into the inlet manifold then undo 2 bolts 10 mm socket required which secure long pipe. Remove 2 more bolts on the back top of egr valve 8 mm. then undo 2 10 mm bolts that secure it to the egr cooler Then this is where the problem started for me I find there was a Allen key bolt underneath the egr valve which is mega awkward to get to in the end I gave up Not very happy Don't know why there was a bowl under their security it already seems very secure Hopefully on yours it doesn't have that if you go on YouTube type in Ford Focus 2.0 tdci egr valve cleaning it is The third one down it's a good video but does not say about the Allen bolt I think it may be a pug or Volvo which is the same unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
