Default Re: EGR Valve Problems??

When it blows smoke out the back does the glow plug light illuminate? - nothing on dash

Fuel filter blocked - Car was serviced only a month ago which I know means nothing but when you give it the beans she still gives full power. Other than at idle she drives perfectly.

Air ingress into the fuel lines - As above but there is no air in the system.

Intake air shut-off throttle or solenoid - I wonder if the butterfly is sticking?? I cleaned all the intake out only a month or so ago so there is no sludge holding it open.


I'm thinking that I might go to the garage and see if i can replicate problem when they are there. Other than that i think the garage need to have a fiddle and see if they can find something I can't.

Soon as this problem is fixed, it's being sold.
