Thanks to answer! No i want to mean E.G.R valve on repair guide by Sven but don t find in my car! also i want to clean maf to.

arrrr.... the bit about changing the other 3 threw me... cos thre is only 1 EGR valve.


If you have a 105JTD it's at the front of the engine.... gold coloured disc with a black pipe on it and some mesh round the pipe.





Mine was blocked shut.... which was good!! Got fresh, clean air all the time and went quicker!!

The last of the Bravo JTDs where fitted with a CF3 or as some say a Phase3 JTD100 engine. My JTD is the JTD100. This engine has an electronic EGR unlike the vaccuum type on the older JTD105.

The EGR can be found at rear of the engine on the side closest to the battery near the top. Better access can be gained by removing the big black engine cover. See my picture for the location of the EGR on the JTD100.

The EGR looks like this...

Thanks Tommy and Joske. Tommy i had to read dictionary i understand what you want to mean . Portugal have another name. Joske i found the egr is almost like the peace you show. To clean is the same Sven show's in repair guide . Tommy in Portugal we said blind the egr to keep admition clean.

Well in the UK it's the same.... but it passed the MOT with it not working so I never bothered to clean in.... and the extra power was also nice



Glad we have helped. Should have realised it was a JTD100 from the year.



Your english is not bad.... better than some on here!!

The E.G.R.is clean! Isn t easy!many Dust dark and the admition also has many dust. What are your opinion about to close the E.G.R?if i close i have to close the pipe who comes the exaust?
Joske i see you sell manuals. What kind of manual.i am interested to know every detail of my car.send me your contact

You wanted 4 EGR valves on your engine?
Come on, you were confusing with glow plugs

EGR is a valve that recirculates exhaust gas back to the engine, it has advantages so have it mind when you get rid of it.


"EGR in diesel engines

In modern diesel engines, the EGR gas is cooled through a heat exchanger to allow the introduction of a greater mass of recirculated gas. Unlike SI engines, diesels are not limited by the need for a contiguous flamefront; furthermore, since diesels always operate with excess air, they benefit from EGR rates as high as 50% (at idle, where there is otherwise a very large amount of excess air) in controlling NOx emissions.

Since diesel engines are unthrottled, EGR does not lower throttling losses in the way that it does for SI engines (see above). However, exhaust gas (largely carbon dioxide and water vapor) has a higher specific heat than air, and so it still serves to lower peak combustion temperatures; this aids the diesel engine's efficiency by reduced heat rejection and dissociation. There are trade offs however. Adding EGR to a diesel reduces the specific heat ratio of the combustion gases in the power stroke. This reduces the amount of power that can be extracted by the piston. EGR also tends to reduce the amount of fuel burned in the power stroke. This is evident by the increase in particulate emissions that corresponds to an increase in EGR. Particulate matter (mainly carbon) that is not burned in the power stroke is wasted energy. Stricter regulations on particulate matter(PM) call for further emission controls to be introduced to compensate for the PM emissions introduced by EGR. The most common is particulate filters in the exhaust system that result in reduced fuel efficiency. Since EGR increases the amount of PM that must be dealt with and reduces the exhaust gas temperatures and available oxygen these filters need to function properly to burn off soot, automakers have had to consider injecting fuel and air directly into the exhaust system to keep these filters from plugging up."
