Good job but to complicated job I've removed my egr from the bottom of the car there's plenty of space to get to it didn't have to remove anything from the top of the engine only the under car engine cover took me few minutes I didn't have car lift just jack stand's
Many thanks for the video. Mine is a 62 plate so is slightly different, the exhaust joints onto the cooler and EGR valve are two bolts so no faffing about with clamps. I did remove the bulk head, which was a pain to get back, but generally following your video it all went surprisingly smoothly. I didnt purge the fuel line and ran my battery flat pumping the diesel through, although after a while it started. I must admit I was dreading doing it but if you take your time and follow a method it is awkward but easily do-able. Thanks again for a very informative video.
Thanks for the video gave me a good heads up of what to expect, but for anyone about to tackle this job there is no need to remove the bulkhead. I also did a pressure test on my cooler before committing to removing it.
Many thanks Gary. Your video provided me with enough tips and accurate information for me to carry out an “EGR valve only” change on my 13MY HSE LUX in less than five hours from start to celebratory cup of coffee. Well done sir.
@@robinbanks183 very many thanks for taking the trouble to leave such positive feedback! I’m glad the videos are helpful. Comments like yours make the effort of doing a video worthwhile. 😊
I did mine on a 62 plate xs my egr cooler was different yours and pipe work fitted differently I had to go under drivers wheel arch to get to bolts on was a right pain but the stripping down is pretty much the same
Many thanks from Oxford , I pulled my hair out trying to locate and remove most of the fastenings, putting it back was better apart from the damned exhaust clip . One you said use mole grips I knew it could be done , and so it was Cheers !@!!!
Big time thankbyou ones again. Orange gloves and electric 90 degree ratchet is best friends on this tipe jobs. I see there is no way to take egr itself for cleaning without cooler now.
I've been looking for a tutorial on this for months. I have a turbo underboost that I suspect is a leaking exhaust manifold or EGR as everything has been replaced.
Jim I replaced the cooler simply because I had seen on the forums that these can start to leak. I didn’t want the risk of having to do the job again if the cooler then failed a bit further down the line. Probably overkill, but gives me peace of mind….

Hello , only a question what engine do you have? 2.2 diesel??

Top man
Big time thank you

Can I ask what was the reason you changed both parts, what were your symptoms, thanks Jim, ps great video

Thank you 👍
Brilliant video thanks. Anyone know if it's the same as a 2011 190hp FL2 2.2ltr
The 2.2l engines are mechanical the same bad turbo and ecu as I’m aware. Should be the same process
Apparently no need to dismantle wipers motor area.
Well I wouldn’t fancy doing it without removing the rear panel in the engine bay. I found it awkward enough with the panel out 😊
@@garyredman642 done one today.
Friendly enaugh.
Also uploaded video.
Reason for replacement?
What brand valve you have bought please?
EGR valve kept sticking either open or closed causing warning light and affecting drive. I used a pierburg valve.
