hi guys, as a few of you know ive had a few problems with the EGR.


i had it cleaned by a garage, i can tell its running slightly better but literally about 10 miles down the road the EML came back on.

new egr needed?
 
If the EGR solenoid has ceased and failed that may be the reason.

Replace (£70 look for Vauxhall 1.9 8v EGR's on eBay for a cheap new replacement)

Or the solenoid needs stripping down and cleaning.

De-coking the valve is but half the job.
 
i bought the part for 57 before you said that chris lol.

oh well, hopefully its ok.

has anyone used this part?

its going to be fitted saturday hopefully i can tell the differeance as my average mpg has gone from around 47mpg to around 40mpg.

hopefully it improves.
