MK1 EGR cleaning


On your car the EGR sits on the exhaust manifold at the front of the engine. Remove it and soak it as long as possible in carb cleaner or some other solvent. Then give it a good scrub until all parts are shining and the butterfly valve moves easily. Check pipes for perishing/leaks and re-assemble.
