How to Maintain the EGR Valve on a Renault Clio

Model: Renault Clio MK 3, Clio 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: EGR valve

To perform this quick task, you must first release the bonnet from the appropriate lever to lift it and secure it with the prop rod. Then, remove the upper engine cover and locate the position of the EGR valve, as indicated in the video. Disconnect the connector that powers the valve, then remove the bolts securing the entire assembly and the pipes that pass fluid to the valve. This way, you can spray the cleaning fluid to clean and free the various disassembled parts. Reassemble everything, and you're done!
