iantt Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 you could have either cooled or non cooled, you need to have a look for the coolant pipes if it had any Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katelyndon Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 thanks. its water cooled, going to take it off and try cleaning it, then buy a new one if it doesn't seem any better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 wouldnt bother cleaning it myself, by the time youve got it off, got covered in coolant, cursed because the bolts are a pain to get to, then curse because there tight. you get my drift by now lol fro experience its quite oftenthe electrical part that causes the egr to jam up, or water ingress in connector causing corrosion. you could be lucky and its just carboned up. good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katelyndon Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 I was told it was egr valve as on tick over it sometimes has a bit of a jump but apart from that its ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 coukd be egr, or injector, but your egr cleaning worth a go then first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katelyndon Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 thanks. Will try the cheap option first. My husband will do it lol. I keep making cups of tea and he's happy.
