How to Remove the EGR Valve on Land Rover Discovery

Model: Land Rover Discovery MK 3, LR3, Discovery 3, L319 - Years 2004-2010
Part: EGR valve

Is the EGR valve damaged? Let's see how to remove it inside the engine compartment. Lift the hood and secure it, then detach the plastic soundproofing panel. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the locking pins of the ventilation pipe. Remove the EGR valve mounting bolts. Once the part is detached from its seat, you can take it out of the engine compartment. Start cleaning the valve using a suitable mechanical parts cleaner, and use a brush to assist in the process. Install the new or remanufactured valve and tighten the screws. Reattach the air tube. Test the operation.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
