I had a similar problem with a transit years ago, on tic over the engine was hunting.. slightly reving up and down. A local garage said the egret valves needs replacing which they did, it didn't make a difference. I took it to an independent Ford specialist, he done an update on the van with the Ford IDS computer, problem solved, it drove like a new van.
Thanks for the info buddy 👍👍
Great improvement on the first video
useful to know what engine option you are dealing with
Brilliant video thank you ❤️👀👀👀👀👀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I understand that if the gasket slow because it’s a pressurized system the it messes up a bunch of stuff and I don’t know what all it messes up but I imagine that that might be why the EGR is down because I have a 2018 transit van here in America or whatever and it has a bad EGR now but I recently ran it to where it had less than 30 miles to the tank so I understand that it’s that
A friend of mine removed the entire EGR system on his Mercedes Sprinter and got 20 - 30% lower fuel consumption, have heard many other also get similar reduction on other brands of cars also...
Hi. I've got a machanic changing the EGR valve. For some reason while doing this he has soaked the whole engine with engine oil. Not sure if he knows what he is doing. Is this a normal thing that happens when changing or is he messing up my van? Thanks.
Did the van go into limp mode when this happened?
Hi buddy
I’ve got the same problem, I’ve had mine on for 3 years, now a new MOT. Centre won’t pass it until it’s done. Have you tried to turn the Light out. It won’t work on the reader and was wondering if you knew of any other way of turning it out
Regards
Paul
Hi buddy you can try and blanking the EGR valve off it can be done have a look on youtube

Hi mate I have 1 its 2010 just not sure if its got a built in cooler the older 1s have 1 apparently
Hi Neil this one has a cooler 👍👍😷
put the original one back on clean it thoroughly and use a good quality egr cleaner job done
hi paul I did try a egr cleaner but did not clean off the sutt I might be using a cheap one not sure
What cleaner would you recommend ? I have just bought a Transit with this as the only engine problem for a good price. This will be my first job!
@@jordanscott7931 Hi mate , I always use mr muscle oven cleaner and spray all the valve and leave for an hour then wash off , depending how bad it is you can give it a 2nd or 3 rd clean and it will come up like new , just make sure you get in the port where the valve lifts up and down and it will be sorted..👍
I have mk6 transit FWD 2002 300S just changed gearbox first gear 1 and 2 pops out adjust now gear 1 can not engage at all what might be the problem?
Joseph Dumani Hi buddy sounds like a problem with the gear box was it a reconditioned box you had fitted
Charly85 nice thanks buddy I have oil everywhere 👍
Hi how is your egr valve is it sorted now ? I'm gonna have to do mine as eml light comes on and then it goes into limp mode because of it , looks a pig but doable , thanks for showing me where it is .
Gorgan Hi buddy it’s much better now no problem since I changed it . It is a little tricky to change just fiddly and yes a pig but is doable good luck pal the hardest thing is lining up the metal gaskets 👍
@@ResurwreckAutosUK thanks for your reply , when I get round to doing it I'll be filming it and might put it up on the youtube .
Where did you get the hand held device from ? Do a lot of people have these ? I ask as my engine management light has come on......where do I begin ?
Hi buddy on eBay about £60 👍👍
Thank you for your help
@@elaineshaw1989 no problem stay safe in this mad world 👍👍
You're very kind . Thank you , you too
pardon my ignorance, but what is limp mode? My van has had the management light on for about 6 years and its the egr valve coming up. just last week the brake symbol and the abs light and the esp light were on aswell the van started losing power as I was driving along city streets doing about 20 - 30 just briefly for a second or 2, 2 or 3 times every minute or so and the speedometer dial was dropping to zero and then going back up. Took it to garage in for 3 days before looking ( I know your all busy.) sorted the brake disc symbol thing but couldnt get the abs light the esp light to go out, told me it was some kind of problem with the abs module and on a van that age he would just ride it, he said it was safe just that the abs wouldnt work, but it is still losing power as I am driving along and the speed dial is still flicking up and down. any body got any ideas what it could be.
Hi James sounds like you have some serious problems with your van where are you in the country

It might be worth running Terraclean through the engine and changing the EGR Valve again. I think it's about £150-200 to get a garage to do this. Did this to mine and the light has stayed off so far. Running like new.
Thanks buddy appreciate the info definitely worth a go 👍👍
I understand it to be the think it’s it it’s a 12 gallon sorry 12 quarts of oil five cylinder diesel I think it’s a 3.2 or 3.1 I’m not sure I understand that it’s something is called a puma it might be my exhaust system I’m not sure but the dealership reset the light because I had a little lot they say that it might not be under warranty and I might have to pay the cost for the diagnosis and the replacement about a 50-50 chance that it’s under warranty I can’t afford that right now and yeah so I’m thinking that I’m gonna leave the check engine light on and not idle it for hours and hours on end anymore
What 2.4 ford transit lorry does it sit in a similar place
Mcdonald family Mcdonald Hi pal it sits in a similar place if it’s a rwd transit if the transit is a fwd it will be in a different place the egr valve I hope this helps 👍
@@ResurwreckAutosUK I found it know cheers thanks gonna video it aswell cheers
I get the brake system light and the stability control light at the same time ,then goes into limp mode 🤷🏻♂️ , I’ve had It round about 6 garages and none of them know what’s going on 🙄 one said it was egr valve then another said it’s not , someone have any idea?
Hi did you ever get your van sorted, mine has the same lights on the dash aswell as a spanner,, it's not going in to limp mode as yet, but cuts out sometimes, then starts straight back up,,,any information would be a grate help, iv only had it a few weeks, but love it
@@georginapapaphotis1972 I eventually had to replace the turbo , that was the main issue apart from the Dpf which was the other issue both Dpf and turbo was blocked so I deleted the Dpf and changed the turbo the van has been perfect ever since .
@@r5gtturbo197 thank you very much for taking the time to explain, top man all the best jamie,,, my wifes account,,, 👌👍
If I was you blank it off. And replace that one under warranty.
To keep the engine light off. Ok 👍
Romlasmo abib admiration Ford transit 2013 2.2
Can Facebook address, thank you very much
Buy cheap buy twice get a refund and buy a better one
you are right just paid £120 for one hopefully this one will do better
@@ResurwreckAutosUK If your valve is OEM then stick on one of the cheap ones temporary and give your original a really good clean until it’s like new , test it to make sure its opening and closing properly and then stick it back on and keep the cheapo valve in case you need to do it again in a years time..👍
@@yensabi Hi mate great idea I like it 👍👍
Van needs cleaning out it's disgusting work can of not
