I've got the plate but just out of curiosity I wanted to use the egr spray cleaner and take it up the motorway for few hundred miles to see if there was any difference, it's having a service in December and my mechanic is going blank my EGR with the plate I bought off Ebay.
Did you not clean your EGR? And just blank it straight off?

I think if you give it plenty of long runs on motorways the valve will b ok.diesel engines need a good run.

Hi Guys, I took it for a long run up to Birmingham from wales had a full service done by a garage i trust and he eventually changed the EGR for a new one as it was too badly damaged, also i however need a new seal on injector number 3 and he wants to check my turbo as its not kicking in and thinks its possibly the vanes and turbine itself caked in crud the same as what he cleaned from my engine manifold.

For anyone reading this it's not physically possible to spray something in an intake and have it clean the egr valve, anything you spray in might de crud the intake manifold to some extent, but it will never get near an egr valve itself!! It's snake oil in a tin!!
