Using a ratchet, extension, and 10 mm socket, loosen the screw of the intercooler duct, then remove the metal clip with a screwdriver. Plug the holes with clean rags to prevent dirt from entering.

Move the turbocharger valve by unscrewing the single nut that holds it in place. With a 10 mm socket spanner, unscrew the bolts securing the EGR and take care not to lose the gasket.

At this point, you can clean it or replace it: reassembly is done in reverse order. If you wish to clean it, use a cleaning product, as shown in the video, along with a brush and a cloth.
