    Hey there! Do you know what bolt size are those? I tried but ended up snapping the 2 bolts that hold the Egr valve in. I was lucky that the stuck part of the bolt stick out so it's an easy fix but I dont know what size they are

    My Egr valve is not so easy to access because it sits just behind my alternator.

    Hey! I tried doing this to my Subaru today. I ended up snapping the bolt on the EGR valve, do you have any suggestions on taking it out?

    • @BulletSolano
      @BulletSolano  4 роки тому +2

      Hey, if you have some treads sticking out see if you can get the rest of the bolt out, if not take the car to a shop so they can welded a bolt to the remaining bolt from the car!! Or get a bolt extractor kit form any auto parts store

    Isn't this the Idle Air Control Valve, the EGR is on the other side of the engine.

      @@BulletSolano it is the EGR valve. I bought an 06 Impreza for my son. And it had a small vacuum leak, so we did a smoke test. And that's where the leak was. Researched and found it was the EGR valve.
