- How to clean your Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve. Based on a 2009 Lexus IS220 2.2 Diesel 175. How to remove the EGR, clean it and replace it. Some garages will tell you that you will need a new EGR valve, here we restore it to an almost original working condition.

This worked like a treat. This video is really well constructed and explained, that even someone like myself who is clueless about cars managed to do this. Thank you very much, this saved me a lot of money, as the garage told me I needed a new valve, even though the RAC report said it was just blocked with soot.
I'm pleased it worked for you.
Very informative video, satisfying seeing how much you cleared out.
Was laughing at the toothbrush comment 🤣
I gave the toothbrush a clean before I put it back in her holder
Fantastic video, thank you! Small tip, I found it far easier to access those 2* tricky manifold bolts by just removing the battery. Plain sailing after that!
Thanks for the tip Derek, I will try that soon, its time I cleaned it out again.
Thank you from Portugal. You saved my life :)
Glad it helped
Had my IS220d for years now, on 158k miles, this is a yearly job... i've also gutted the DPF so miles smokey in an effort for better MPG but these cars are notoriously terrible for MPG. Thanks for the video though, I done similar years ago but yours is a lot more step by step
They get you around 30mpg around the town which is not bad
Yes the Mpg is the worst part of these engines, my average MPG over 5 years is 34mpg, yet the same engine in my Avensis my average is 42 MPG. only thing I can think of is in the Lexus the compression ratio is lower than when they used the engines in Toyotas. You've done well doing your own DPF, think ill check out your channel.
Thanks for the video bro. Gonna clean mine next few days.
Hope you get on ok, don't drop the bolt down the engine like I did 🤦♂
Just bought a -08 220d with 130000km/80500 miles on the clock, been driving it for 3-4 weeks now, I’ve barley noticed that it has lost a little power day by day, but then last week it got REALLY tired, and finally the engine light came on the dashboard and it also told me to check the vsc.
So, now I’ll just do this and it’ll be good to go.
Hopefully this will cure the problem. When mine went into limp home mode the VSC light also came on. If this doesnt cure the problem at least you wont need to do the egr valve clean in the future. Let me know if it works.
@@amateurtorque6709 worked out real nice, but the next time I’ll get an autoclave/ultra sound washer. Just detach the solenoid first.
I would do an oil change now, just to clean out any black stuff that's in the oil.
I usually just use the cheapest I can find of the fully synthetic type from Adsa. My Little Toyota Auris 1.4Ltr Diesel has 115,000 Miles on the clock and has never had the EGR valve cleaned. I usually try to give it a blast up the motorway at least once a month to keep the EGR and DPF a bit cleaner.
That's a lovely looking Lexus 😍, I wonder how long you have had it and what you paid ?. I bought my Little Toyota Auris 2013 about 18 months ago for £3300 it's crazy there now selling for around £5K to £6K for the same model and with more miles on than mine.😊
Thanks for your tip Stephen. Sounds like your Auris is running well. I've had it since 2017, been in the family since 2014. I think getting the alloys refurbed made a difference to the appearance, Lexus charged £80 per corner.
thanks for your video man, really appreciate it!
have the same car and year
Pleased it helped, cheers.
That’s a lot of carbon so it should whiten your wife’s teeth well.
I’ll have a word with my son-in-law, he’s got the same model.
Thank you, brilliant video.
Cleaned mine, I read on a post that you should run them back in so it re programmed , it’s still a bit Smokey so I’m going to blast it up the A19 what do you think.
I haven't heard of the re programming, however once the engine is up to operating temperature a good blast in a high gear is good for any diesel.
I’ve tried this and it worked well, thank you for such a helpful video. However, the intake to the engine still look filthy and I’m not sure how to get that but cleaned. Also the car has a smell when l I have egr issue, is this normal?
Great job, I use oven cleaner on it..
Mine is 15years old, 50,000 miles Lexus says from what I told them WGR valve wants cleaning. how much should I expect to pay via a good mechanic, Lexus roughly quoted £1200, which aint gonna happen. Problems are poor MPG & oscillating idle when cold between 800 to 1200rpm. Thank you.
£1200 is a lot, I think it took me a few hours to clean mine that included setting the cameras up, however it did get fiddly removing the bolts from the bulk head end, I dropped one and it took ages to recover. But if you like getting your hands dirty and you are patient you should give it ago yourself.
@@amateurtorque6709 Yes you are right £1200 is a lot, especially as it is a manufacterers fault. Which I am completely sure they know about. Heater on - 1200rpm, heater off 800 rpm. Hence using inordinate amounts of fuel on small journeys. I would have spent the £1200 & had the same problem. Thank you for your response.
Take it to a local small workshop with a good reputation they will charge 1 hour labour approximately 60 pounds for a honest garage job done the electronic part of the valves should be fine as Lexus electronics is pretty good the mechanical part of the part gets very dirty hence needing a clean the egr valve itself costs over £250 I recommend you find a local experienced mechanic and stay away from Lexus they will rip you ass off
Mine is a 2007one, same age than your I guess.
Lexus France would charge me 400euro for it (in Paris) bit more expensive than the rest of the country.
@@Aracneus21 400 euros Lexus IS still slapping your ass it’s a 1 hour dirty valve clean up job it actually does not need replacing 9/10 times it’s a emission device which your car actually does not even really need , diesel is a dirty fuel they say so they are digging the shit out of earth for lithium polladium platinum rhodium to make electric cars and cat convertor exhausts like it’s really gonna help in the long run everything’s designed to rip you off
I tried to do this, but now I get a warning VSC. Please, do you know how to reset this warning?
I had a VSC warning when it went into limp home mode, due to the blocked EGR, but once reset, it did not come on again.
