How to Remove the EGR Valve on a Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: EGR valve

Is the EGR valve on your Punto malfunctioning? Let's go through the removal and replacement process in the engine bay. Open and lift the bonnet, and disconnect the central engine tunnel. Spray cleaning fluid into the air intake (for cleaning the valve) or identify the part to remove: use a socket to unscrew the EGR valve's locking bolts, and remove it from the engine bay. Insert a new functioning valve. After installing the replacement part, you can mount the cover back over the engine. Check that all parts are correctly fitted and test the EGR valve's functionality.
