This video is currently unavailable
A faulty EGR valve can cause various problems, especially in diesel vehicles (but also in gasoline ones), including loss of power and overall poor performance, increased fuel consumption, difficulty starting, especially when cold; irregular idling, smoke coming from the exhaust: black for incomplete combustion, white or bluish for possible burned oil. Very often, the engine light also turns on, indicating an error such as P0401, P0403, or P0404. We might also hear strange noises, and in more severe cases, engine overheating. In many cases, the problem can be resolved with a thorough cleaning of the valve, or if it is broken or too clogged, with its replacement.

Frequently Asked QuestionsHow to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?
To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete. by ScegliAuto More videos
