No not on the 2.2 diesel engine, otherwise i would have.

It's been cleaned once by the garage, but ive seen how to on Youtube now. So im going to do it this time.

It always get stuck when the weather gets cold.

You sure you can't on the 2.2? You can in the 1.9 diesel, but it means you also need to remap.

Did it earlier this year.

You're griping about 1 part ? Your post should be in the smile thread Mavi. Trust me

i just happened to be watching the news (which i never do) and BBC news implying that the bucket lorry driver in Glasgow was a terrorist. these kind of statements pizz me right off as i could have a backlash on the resident Asian community.

give it a fekin rest BBC not everyone is a furkin terrorist.

Yep pretty sure you can't, got any pictures of your EGR, just wondered if its the same. There's no info on mine. Even on Ebay there's no blanking plates for my engine.

Yes Darren i can see why you might say that, but when this stops working it puts the car into 'limp' mode, which can happen when you're in the outside lane, so you loose all power and acceleration. Which is bloomin scarey with the kids in the car, because you don't know when its going to happen.

The engine doesn't need it to run, it was just to pass the emissions test.

My engine can't be adapted to run without one, so a new one is £200

I think we all should stop stressing about Christmas and think of the families of those killed or injured, and the driver who it sounds like had collapsed at the wheel. If he survives his illness and injuries he'll probably never get over it.

Yep, but I put it down to it being a poor time for news stories, so they have to add spice to the story, otherwise what will they fill their 24 hour news channel with?

BBC have even dragged the 1st minister in to talk to her about it
