Not bad when cold which is strange but still not good.Takes it about 3000 revs to kick in at second and third gear but when its been on the road for a while and dropping down a few and back up in gear its brutal.Going to tackle the egr and give it a good clean if needed.The fuel econemy could be a bit better as well i think.Hoping its just a load of crap in the valve but if not any ideas?Anyone clean the egr on a 1.3 multijet,hopes its not to difficult.
 
Had a look at the egr valve tis morning and said feck that.Who designed the bloody engine,its a nightmare to get at.You would need big time patience and a full day to get at it.Might tackle it one day when I have loads of time.Whats the story with just taking of the sensor and leaving it off perminently,I presume a big yellow light in the dash,anything else?
