mrshaw Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Hi, New to the forum and having an issue with the EGR valve on CJCA engine. Is this the valve and if so has anything removed it or is there any guides on how to? Thanks David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddyCam Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Hi David, Just wondering how you got on with your EGR valve removal. I'm getting an EGR related engine code (P0401) and i would like to take mine off and clean if possible. Had you any success with yours? Any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks, Patrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpha omega Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 firstly i dont have any codes or management light on the dash.is it worth the hassle of of removing the egr/cooler to clean it up to improve miles per gallon.is it a big job too getting to the inlet valves to clean them out regards stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
