Model: Renault Modus MK 1 - Years 2004-2013
Part: EGR valve
Operation: Removing and cleaning the EGR valve

The periodic cleaning of this valve allows to improve the pollution, in fact the recirculation of the combustion gases (in the context of the alternative internal combustion engines) consists in recirculating a "small" part (5-15%) of the exhaust by passing them from the exhaust manifold to the intake manifold, in order to reduce a part of the pollutants present in the exhaust gases. Locate the valve and disconnect the electric cable then with a ratchet wrench remove the sealing bolts at the base of the same. Gently remove the lower protection and then the valve from its housing by rotating it back and forth until it comes out of its seat. Once extracted, carefully clean the inside of the valve with a special spray with the help of a brush and a rag.
