  • How to access EGR motor?

    I need to pull out EGR motor section just below EGR valve - GOlf 5 TDI 2.0. I have to remove all black sludge as it's blocked. I wonder if I need to get under the car to do this job as from the top it's too difficult to put hands inside. Has anybody done it?

    I haven't physically removed it, but did remove the intercooler plumbing leading up to it, and cleaned it out from underneath. It's easy to do, just a clip for the inlet hose. I'd suggest attacking it from the top, and yeah, my car at 30k's was very sludge coated and I've run a Provent oil catch can since next to new, so I'm getting a fraction of the oil ingested as per standard to form the exhaust sludge.

    EGR is not a good thing for keeping a clean inlet manifold.

      I found Provent on the web - which model do you have? Do you have photos of installation? I want to put one in.
