Answer

Let's see in this short and simple guide how to solve the problem of excessive exhaust gas coming out of the Chevrolet Beat muffler; on these diesel engines it appears to be a common problem but the malfunction seems to concern in particular the EGR valve which becomes excessively dirty. Let's then disassemble and clean the valve with the appropriate degreasers; if we fail to remove the carbon deposits, we proceed with the replacement of the entire EGR valve.
