In this video we can see where the EGR valve is located in the Volkswagen Golf MK7, useful in case we need to clean it or replace it directly. As shown, the valve is located at the rear of the engine on the driver's side. To access it we will first have to remove the plastic cover of the engine, and then disassemble both the air filter box and its intake manifold. To disassemble the valve, simply disconnect the additional pipes connected to it and unscrew the respective fixing bolts. Obviously, let's make sure that we always operate with a cold engine.

How to reset the TPMS light of the Volkswagen Polo 2011

The orange tire light indicates the presence of one or more tires with an inflation pressure below the recommended limit. All this is easily solved by inflating them correctly or replacing them in the event of a puncture. After carrying out these operations it is necessary to reset the warning light and therefore also the sensor in order to have new reading data. All you have to do is start the car ignition and then fully open the glove compartment on the passenger side. Locate the two buttons in the right corner and press "Set". At this point the reset is complete and you can turn off the ignition.
