Keep up the good work. It is a pleasure to watch your content. Great presentation. Rock on!
Starting from the basics and giving us the full picture, man i love your channel, i just joined your patreon, appreciate your content very much
After watching two videos from 10 years ago. Well done at continuing the channel and improvements in focus and sharpness. I'm struggling to pass emissions test in Maryland. 2009 VW rabbit with faulty secondary air injection system sensor. After watching this video I now have a better idea of how one can trash a perfectly good car with no issues because of not being able to pass emissions test. Just paid $200 to be quoted $1400 to repair.
Thanks for the refresher! I had an EGR issue on my Camry 2.2 liter. Vacuum killed the engine so good there. Vacuum was created upon idling up at the modulator, so good there. Applied 12v to the VSV no click and vacuum didn't drop, emptied my pockets and problem solved.
Thanks! Yeah at first was over my head, but with your explanation my head caught up to it. Thanks again!
3:04 All can appreciate the “old school” approach .
It’s a great fix when the parts don’t cost too much!
Good engineer , congratulations. I work for Avianca, and i live in Sarasota Florida, thanks for great information
I had a GM engine reporting EGR that eventually proved to be an intake manifold gasket leak. It took only a moment speaking to a competent mechanic to learn that it was a known issue with my engine, but not before a "GM certified mechanic" had soaked me for a fortune, giving the car back with "did all I could, hope that helps" and clearly knowing he was taking the easy money and too lazy to do the real job. Charged me full extension price on OEM egr valve that was clearly not needed. He belongs in jail. And for what it's worth, spraying to seek vacuum leaks was not effective because there was so little access beneath the plenum.
There are many of those around there buddy.
Great explanation of issues with EGR . Really appreciate the video
Les.
I’ve never seen a small pump like that. It appears to be a Craftsman? Btw- great channel, I’m a long time subscriber, no surprise you have over 1 million subs!!!!!!!
12:30 🤣💕👏👍Great job on the EGR. $22 bux for the lil hose tho!!! 😱
excellent job.... the explanation of how a system works was a bonus.
You are dang funny! 😂
BTW, if it's your birthday, Happy Birthday 🎉🎂!
🍻👍
There is a latch in the hood hinges that will allow to open the hood 90 degreed
Your videos are great!
Can you open the hood a full 90 degrees by pushing the orange button by the passenger side hood hinge? It took me 10 years to figure out this on a W210.
Excellent video where did you get that pump? and I wonder if is the same i saw to bleed the brakes and both will do the same job?
Professional workshop
Loving it
Great Video! -Mark.
Would energizing the solenoid check both the egr and solenoid and exhaust and intake lines not clogged if it bogs down?
Remove and delete is the best fix
Can you do a video on how to fix code p0406 egr sensor circuit a high ? There is voltage between the signal wire and the ground wires on my egr plug someone told me this is not normal im just trying to confirm there is a short , where the short is in the circuit , what type of short it is and how I would go about testing for that .
very educative thank you regards
Good job sir
Please do a video on how you organize fasteners and screws and don't lise anything.
There is no such video that can be made ... for screws and fasteners having a mind of their own.
My advice is to take lots of pictures before every step and write down steps you do, which at my level of knowledge is like removed round tube size of grapefruit from clicky thingy.
Thank you so much!
Ah, Mercedes. They can make anything difficult to work on, although not as bad as Audi
..
Good video.
Nice work
NOX, not knocks like a ping or detonation can cause. Just clarifying for anyone going "oh it prevents engine knocks, I didn't know that" 😂
Thanks 🙏👍👍
replace EGR VALVE 2010kia sorento 2.2 desiel, now shows fualt p0490 its been at the garage for weekdrove home and p0490 came up again checked connector 12v both sides of solenoid diconnected pluge still 12v on plug on both outer pins to ground and 5v ?why 12v on both sides
Good day I have such a head ache with this problem with my car I sent my 2018 Nissan Pathfinder sl to a shop to get the plugs and coils changed unbeknownst to me they stripped the hex bolt on the throttle body and I can’t get it off to change the coils again and shops want to charge me a arm and a leg
Hello 🙋♂sir please help me. i have a 1998 ford f 150 and i keep getting a po401 code. i already clean the throttle body its clean no carbon, the egr is working i put vacuum and truck almost cut off, so i rule that out, i took the cap off the egr solenoid while engine running also check volts has continuity, then i put finger on the top little hole from solenoid truck dies, rule out solenid, bought new dpfe sensor, check orifice tube from egr to converter its clean, i did notice on scanner egr drive cycle will only pass when check engine code comes on only, po401, any ideals what this problem could be?? im trying to pass emission test please reply back thank you.
The code sets when the diagnostic for the P0401 run. The EGR temperature sensor does not see enough temperature change when the EGR is commanded on. Failed temperature sensors are common.
I have a hardbody and had an egr for the longest but recently the error went away. Possible it just came unclogged? I know the check engine light still works.
No one can answer the question over the internet.
@@warriormanmaxx8991correct. That’s why I included the keyword “possible” in my question. Looking for suggestions not a diagnosis.
I dunno how much of a tip this is... but I used to replace the hoses with different colored hoes. Makes it look non-oem... but the point was more to know which lines were already replaced. Especially when fixing one a weekend 😉
Saab story...
Great idea
My Legend 😎... these ladies wantend trimmed beard 😅
Why you never work on big eningen
Can you have a bad EGR without showing any codes??
Anything is possible when dealing with auto mechanics.
Is that an Audi RS6 in the background?
Why the need to know what car is in background? Are you still wondering??
So what was the problem?
👍
What part in San Diego are you in ?
Why the need to know?? Are you looking for an address??
I wish America was a free country and we could just drive car with old styke systems, amd even manufacture new cars but old-school. Like remanufacture 1987 Blazers
❤
😳lota work
Did you mean "A lot of work?"
What the hell is an E10 socket
Egr valve is something to go to the local car tuning guy and program away. No car in the whole world should use an egr valve since its gases collides with oil from crank case ventilation and will make the whole engine so seize up with soot and oil as a sludge making the intake seized up. So get rid of that shit asap!
Who in Hell are you writing to?!?
@@warriormanmaxx8991 you obviously
👊
👍👋
13:45 🤣🤣🤣👀
Fix EGR -> rip EGR out :D
Yay Robert! I'm watching, I'm watching! F*k Scotty Kilmer. LOL
That car looks like hell
😅😅😅
First
So?
10th!
Nobody likes a broken nipple 😂
Yeahhh ... especially hungry babies!!

Why are u buying junk cars? buy : FJ Cruiser, Honda elements, older 6 cylinder Jeeps, Tahoes, Lexus LS, Porsche 911s, ....etc
He flips them. Why people want to buy Mercedes in the first place is a mystery, but they do
@@Greg_Chock Actually it's ok to own a Jag or Mercedes if you know how to fix them but flipping not a good idea. I remember placing an ad for a Lexus LS400 in the morning and got sold in the afternoon. A 2002 Mercedes SL500 took 3 months to sell.
In my case it was a bad EGR as well as clogged passages in the intake manifold. 300k mile 4AFE. Still passed smog after fixing. Toyota power!
