Fiat Panda - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Panda MK 2, 169 - Years 2003-2012
Part: EGR valve
Operation: Disassembly and cleaning of the EGR valve

The EGR valve is used to pass part of the exhaust gases back to the intake in order to reduce emissions: for this reason, over time, it tends to clog up and no longer work properly. You can therefore try to clean it even if often in reality the problem is not in the valve body but in the electric actuator and therefore simple cleaning may not be sufficient to solve the problem: given the complexity of disassembly, it is suggested to replace the valve with a regenerated one. The valve in question is located at the bottom right (when looking at the engine from the front), near the brake oil reservoir. Unhook the socket connected to the actuator and unscrew the fixing screws of the actuator itself to the valve; at this point check the opening and closing of the valve by pressing on the central plate to check that it is not blocked: if it moves freely, reassemble the actuator. If you wish to proceed with disassembly and cleaning, we recommend that you also disassemble and clean the manifold.
