![Audi A4 B8 2.0TDI - EGR Cleaning [What is inside] Part 2](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/gfqLZAc35zI/mqdefault.jpg)
Thanks, I've been looking for egr cleaning for my car.
Your not cleaning the EGR valve. The EGR valve is on the opposite side of the combustion chamber next to the EGR cooler.
you will need to elaborate on that.
@@BestCarMods he is right, you were just cleaning the part that connects egr line to the intake. Egr valve is next to the exhaust manifold directly attached to the egr cooler.
In other hand the thing you were cleaning really looks like a egr valve. Could there be 2 of those or some mod were it has been moved there?
@@t.t7225 depends on generation of engine. maybe you have a euro6 or a different version. in theory(reading the Self Study Documentation on the 2.0tdi common rail engine ) they could have High pressure and low pressure EGRs (if i remember correctly)... one that is the classic from the exhaust manifold and another after the DPF... personally i cleaned only the one in the video.
throttle body....runs a lot better now its been cleaned@@BestCarMods
happy to hear this.@@neanderthalbc
Disappointingly using a head cam does t illustrate what you are actually doing?… sorry but thought I would just feedback, maybe next time use a static camera.
thanks for the feedback ;)
My Auid 2013 20TDI shows EGR sensor Hot, nw there is a rattling noise coming from the engine. Sound only come if u accelerate maintaining slow speed. And it goes if u drive more than 40km and above
This is somehow completly useless xD
like cleaning the fillinghose of your gastank...doesn't make any sense.
😂😂😂 that’s your throttle body bud.

It’s the egr and anti judder unit, throttle body is on top of air box.
Cest pas l'egr !!! Mais boitier papillon .

Good video ! greets from France 🖐️
Thanks! Good video!!!
Hey just to know , after cleaning the parts do you have to program the egr or anything or not?
No. Just put it back
The car will program it
Salut spuneai ca ai un clip si cu partea electica pe care o cureti; nu am gasit clipul; am ceva picaturi de ulei pe la cele 2 orificii de pe EGR

Have you felt any significant changes in driving since you cleaned it?
no difference. as you can see from the video the carbon buildup wasn't that bad
Thank you!
could give a link how to clean electronic part
What's the size of the star bolt? M10?
Are you a Romanian,brother?
yes
@@BestCarMods E bine,frate.
Succes
Hi! Was the metal gasket between 2 soft (cardboard) gaskets? Because I bought egr gaskets and got 2 softs and the metal one?
I don't remember. Maybe you can see it from the video.
is this the same 2.0 tidy engine that is in the vw passat b8?
it is very similar.
Thanks for your video it is very informative, where is your workshop located? UK or Romania?
UK. Not yet a workshop.
I get p200200 code on an Audi A4 2016. It says particle filter malfunction. The car is supposed to self-clean the DPF, and as far as I understand, a clogged EGR cooler can cause increased pressure on the DPF and its sensor. Any suggestions?
diagnose the dpf issue & perform the preventive maintenance aka clean the intake + flaps + egr. your dpf might have issues due to many other factors ( loss of pressure - broken pipes, driving style, bad fuel, bad turbo and so on ).
@BestCarMods it seems an expensive fix. I don't have the tools or the knowledge to diagnose this issue. In Norway, the speed limit is 80km, and the car is probably everywhere clogged (egr, turbo, valves, dpf). I use Shell V-Power diesel only, and recently, I forced a DPF regeneration through the car's ECU. If the car needs to go in a garage and get all these components cleaned (if not replaced), I am looking at huge bill.
@@ionkon the speed limit should not be a problem. without properly inspecting the car is it impossible to give you an idea on what is wrong. like a doctor you need to do some tests to assess the patient.
@BestCarMods Indeed, the only thing I noticed is that after removing the faulty code, it takes 2-3 days of normal car use for the check engine light to reappear. I'm not sure if that's the ECUs checking interval, or if there is something that gets activated/deactivated and causes the error to come back. It usually turns on while I am driving to work.
Would you be able to let me know the size of the xzn (12 sides) tool you used? Can’t find the right size! Thanks
Hi, I don't have the Audi any more and can't tell you the exact value. I bought a set of those bits. And the ones that i used the most are XZN-8 XZN-10. the set has many more values. Let me know if XZN-8 is the right one :)
Thank you for the video.
No video on assembling and tightening the bolts Nm?
Could you write the tightening torques for the screw?
i don't remember the settings, but you can do them hand tight, I did not use a torque wrench for this
my egr is leaking a little bit of what looks like oil any asisstance? shall i change the seals ? thanks
not really. it is designed to allow oil to get out. I remember having the same issue. clean it and monitor oil consumption
@@BestCarMods the car doesnt consume any oil the oil level has been the same for months
@@hn_capone8475 clean using some brake cleaner the areas that you don't like how they look and enjoy the car :)
My Audi a3 has this issue 2.0tdi 2008
Is it linked to the shaking at 70mph?
@@rhaseebhassan probably not, might have something else wrong with it wheels? the bearings maybe or misfire im not quiet sure
Admisia nu ai dat-o jos ? Nu se curata ?
Era in plan, doar ca pt a face asta ai de scos conductele de la motorina. Niciodata nu am avut suficient timp sa fac asta. Dupa care am vandut masina.
Is it easy to do this on Audi A7?
I would say yes, but i was taking cars apart since I was a kid
It isn't that much different on a7. If you got different engine, the throttle body will just be in different place and might look different.
Hello, I just wanted to do this too and wanted to change all packing rings too but how does the second black ring call that you took out when you took the egr off, a black ring just under the cilinders i think that you pulled out?
rubber seal ? www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EGR-Valve-Gasket-Seal-Throttle-Housing-FOR-AUDI-A4-8K-2-0-07-ON-Diesel-Elring/373493231545
@@BestCarMods is this the seal thats not on the egr but on the engine?
@@BestCarMods What seals do I have to change ? I know the seal from the egr with 2 holes and the rubber seal but anything else?
@@chizirmelhi5200 I did not change any of them and there was no problem. Audi recommends changing all sealing elements, rubber or metal.
Salutare la montaj urmez aceeași pași ca și la demontarea sau necesita alte operațiuni? Mulțumesc anticipat frumos video... nu de mult mi sa oprit masina din mers și bănuiesc ca asta ar fi problema ...
exact aceeasi pasi. teoretic audi zice sa schimbi garniturile, dar personal nu le-am schimbat si nu au fost probleme
Mulțumesc frumos... cu ce ai curățato cu motorina ?
@@paulmarcus597 benzina motorina sau brake cleaner ... de regula incep cu motorina pt ca nu e asa de volatila dupa care benzina dupa care putin brake cleaner pt final
@@BestCarMods ms frumos .. de ajutor ..
How many kilometres should I clean it?
50~100.000km
@@BestCarMods I have already 213000km 😅
@@Fidebililah nice. On all diesel cars it is good practice to clean EGR, Throttle body and if possible the intake+ flaps.
@@BestCarMods Thanks, i only had problems with dpf so far.
@@Fidebililah do you still have it ?
What was your car doing before your clean Egr?
Nothing in particular. I just have an obsession to do preventive maintenance.
