How to test and clean the EGR valve of the Fiat Panda 1.3 Multijet

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: EGR valve

Today in this guide, we will see the instructions that will allow us to test and clean the EGR valve of the Fiat Panda 1.3 Multijet. First, we open the hood and start disassembling and removing the plastic cover and the air intake hose, loosening the metal clamp screw; then we start the engine and check the exhaust gas measurement through the appropriate tool, as shown in the video. If the gas values are not within the normal range, it is very likely that the EGR valve is very dirty; we then spray a specific cleaning product, disassembling the valve if necessary.
