Fiat dealer refused to give me part number.

Hi all,

I have done a search and have been reading all morning but cannot find a definitive answer. I hope somebody can help.

I am having problems with my car and I believe it stems from the EGR Valve. What I would like to do is buy a brand new one to replace one on the car and then clean old one to keep as a spare, never know when it will come in handy.

Now apparently if you buy from GM then it is usually a 3rd of the price so the other threads suggest but I cannot find anywhere, a part number for the Bravo 1.6 Multijet 105 bhp EGR valve, all the threads I have read are for 120 or the 1.9cc engine.

Can anyone advise please?

Thanks

Just to add. Got timinig belt, aux belt and waterpump changed last week, also had service plus as listed in Fiat service book done at same time. Could anything done here cause the problem of EML, apart from that, intermittent (very) juddering at around 2000 rpm.

Where can I get a workshop manual for the car too please?

Post here the VIN code - ZFA198..........

That's one of the bad effects of an EGR....it causes "gunk" all over the inlet traject...

Thank you all for your help... Where in the engine is the valve located please?

Hi, where exactly would I find that item please?

I have another idea.

Who is local to East Northants and wants to earn a bit of money. Will pay someone to come round, remove egr, clean and replace.

Anyone up for that?

Should be on the back of your inlet manifold, mine a 1.6 multijet, your might look a liitle different, but mine has a small bolt holding it in and has a black connector.

Hi and thanks for reply. I shall have a look tomorrow for that. Here is a real stupid question but how do you remove the connectors with the yellow clip, I pulled the yellow clip back but then could not unclip the connector.

Push the yellow clip outwards with a thin screwdriver then press the black securing clip in and pull the connector out, if I remember correctly. Just be very very careful cleaning it

UPDATE: 2008 1.6 multijet 105 EGR

Thank you all for your help.

I decided to contact CAB to ask what my rights were. Acording to them I am entitled to have my car repaired FOC under the new Consumer Act 2015, so bearing that in mind I have written the car dealer a letter, have added it here. Let me know what you think:

"[FONT=&quot]I now find the goods have the following fault:[/FONT] [FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Diagnostics as done by you showing the following fault codes in Engine Management.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Fault Code: P0490 EGR Control[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Fault Code: P0487 EGR Valve Position.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 goods you supply must be fit for purpose. As there was a problem with the goods when I bought them, I request that you repair the vehicle using OEM parts that will effect a permanent fix rather than cleaning the faulty item that will only be a temporary solution, since the faulty item is being replaced and not repaired, this should take approx. 90 minutes or less according to other garages and will not need to keep vehicle overnight. This repair should also be completed at no cost to me. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I shall take this opportunity to remind you of my Right to Reject as stated in the Consumer Act 2015 where if the part that is repaired subsequently becomes faulty again, I am within my rights to reject the vehicle and receive a full refund. I shall also state that I am legally bound to offer you only one opportunity to rectify the fault before I can exercise that right.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Please respond within 14 days of receiving this letter."[/FONT]

The dealer will probably not respond, and will think "that's one less annoying costumer..."
Again, just delete the EGR, or have it delete by a chiptuner, and you'll never have to worry about it again ( don't forget to manualy blank the EGR as well..)

Anyone with a little technical skills can do this, it's all straight foreward, so every local garage ,workshop or even friendly neighbour would be fine..

Hahaha, I would give it a go myself but I cannot even see where it is located on the engine.

ePER on top of this page is your friend.
