Well in basic terms, from the info I went through at the time, the engine(s) has been designed to recirculate burnt gases back through system. So over time is how the soot and sludge bulits up in the manifold. That's the government's way! Block the egr valve off, use dpf cleaner every so often, and keep your engine running cleaner for your benefit. That's my way! The p0400 code will show, but shouldn't be a problem for performance.

Thanks👍

Yes, had a build up of carbon/soot/ thick sludge. So inevitable clean out!

Hey there, yes the solid pipe your referring to is the front coolant pipe, and that has to be removed to gain better access to the EGR pipe. Though if I remember correctly, there's 3 bolts fixing the coolant pipe to the engine to the left side, near Cambelt case, 3 hoses to remove, 1 middle and 2 on the right. 1 or 2 bracket bolts. Be warned, it is time consuming!

@@torque-it-up5621 Yeah thanks man I ended up doing that, such a silly design on their part 😩

👍

Fuel pump, on this model engine.

@@torque-it-up5621bagga me! I found mine else where but thanks for the help to others

Diesel.👍

Hi, have you removed the fuel pump sprocket?

@@torque-it-up5621 hi,no if I do that I will have to restore time chain ?

Yes, unfortunately I had to loosen the cam belt, but not completely remove it. Then remove the fuel pump sprocket. It was all a pain in the ass with the stages to get there. But it was how I did it.

Hi, sorry for late reply. Well there's the high chance that one or more connection(s) may have come loose or corroded or both, over time up til the point the fan stop working. Check fan switch and any fuse(s). Locate and clean all wiring, connections, up to the fan.

Hi, yes the high-pressure fuel pump sits on the other side of the fuel pump sprocket. The water/coolant pump is located to the right hand side, very slightly behind the camshaft sprocket.

@@torque-it-up5621 ok, nice! It must a different model of Zafira then, in many models the fuel pump is electric and located in the fuel tank. Mine just started coughing, it does not start everytime - and oddly, a tender knock on the bottom of the fuel tank wakes it up.

@@kariniemi9940 Yes, probably another model of zafira! Manufacturers like to do that, chop and change model designs and parts, it just a anoys people!

No, you don't have to replace all those components. It's more of a personal preference. Though it is a good idea to check the condition of parts, if working near them.

GcBell Great. Thank you for the reply!

Hey there, well firstly I would remove every component around it to get as much room as possible to work on, so the heat shield, front water pipe/hoses out the way and radiator fan if needed. For the bolts, get Allen key tool with a decent tight fit and either a good size spanner or suitable metal pipe to go on end for leverage. A hammer and small chisel may help to break the rust by firm taps around the bolts. May be use Wd40 at same time. I would try those methods first.

@@torque-it-up5621 Thanks for your reply. I was thinking I might have to remove half the radiator and pipes round that area to give more room to work with. What you recommend is good. I've just realised I've got a manual impact driver that I hardly used. Think that will 100% break them loose with ease. Few cracks of hammer on end of impact driver and they should come loose what u reckon? Looks like I'll have to do it tomorrow now

I think with manual impact driver you don't even have to break the rust away and dnt even need wd40. Just straight impact driver and hammer and jobs done. That's what I'm hoping anyway because they're great tools that most people don't have in their toolbox and they should have

Yes impact driver method should work nicely, aslong as there's enough room to get driver in position and hammer space.

Yes, what you are saying is correct if you tightening the pulley up, you wouldn't need the tool in place. In the video I've put the tool and bolts all in place just to show how they are situated in fitted location.

The lower end of the white pipe connects to the turbo wastegate actuator/vacuum solenoid. And top end connects to the thin metal pipe which links to vacuum pump.

Hi there, the tool I used in the video is one I made up. But I have seen similar tools on places like eBay.

Hi there, sorry for late response. My engine in the video is the zafira B model (2005-2014), so I believe many of the engine parts are the same. But its always worth checking with correct information, to be 100% sure with parts!

That egr pipe is the exact same as my 2008 Saab 9-3 1.9 TiD. Same location same Allen bolts everything is the same so I guess its the same as your 2010

Good stuff!!

when lock is in place, loosen off the cambelt so is slack. Then gently undo and remove lock, slide the belt off, then either fit new belt on right there when lock is off, then place lock again when new belt fitted. Or fit lock back on til a new belt is available to fit.

Autoplex Tint - Hey there, take an accurate measurement of the slot/hole where woodruff key comes from and have a look somewhere like ebay for new key. The width of the key is most important, 3mm maybe? 5-6mm long? Not sure about an alternative because the nut needs to be tight enough not to loosen when operating.

@@torque-it-up5621 Nice one my G👍

No drain plug?? If that's the case, wait til the coolant is cool enough and if there's a hose anywhere at the bottom of the radiator, loosen any clip or clamp around the hose and pull the hose off and let the water drain.

@@torque-it-up5621 thanks.... drain it flush it changed the thermo stat everything running smooth then warning light.............checked under the bonnet and water was coming from the ECU bolts wtf

Noor Wafai - It's all good!

@@torque-it-up5621 yes done it's perfect position job I love this this video

G G Well on my engine I've only blanked it off at the EGR valve and seems to work. If there's a hissing around the pipe in the video, it's possible that any gasket or o-ring is worn or got a hole. Worn surfaces on the pipe, or loose fixings.

@@torque-it-up5621 it's fine on idle soon boosts fine as it hits 3000rpm it starts hissing its annoying lol

@@GG-nz7vd mines doing that now. Mechanic said it's a split hose but I can't find it. Did you have any luck?
