Hi all,
Multipla 120 eleganza with 45 k miles. Driving perfectly but engine management light appeared over Christmas. Today my local Fiat Dealer told me that diagnostics indicated EGR faulty. They cancelled fault, but it appeared again following a single trip. They want to replace it. I wonder how acurate their diagnosis is. From what I read, EGRs usually stick open. Mine is either closed or the fault is in the solenoid or other related area as I have no loss of power at all. Everything seems fine. Any other failures that would cause it to read an EGR problem or will I just try to clean the valve? Thanks for any thoughts.
By the way thanks for replies on fuel consumption query - I still have not removed roof bars but frosty conditions here doing great things for fuel consumption!
