"Finding, removing, cleaning and replacing the exhaust g recirculation valve on my 2001
Clio.
It w hesitating on accelerating and blowing out loads of black smoke (unburnt fuel).
A brief web search and I found out that a clogged EGR valve could be the cause of the problem.
After finding out
how straightforward it w to remove and replace, I had a go myself - instant

How to remove and
clean a Renault Modus 1.5 dci EGR Valve
lt year my garage
needed to clean this valve to get it through the emissions test during its MOT, this
added about £75.00 to the bill.
This year I
cleaned it my self for the cost of a can of carb cleaner spray, about £
5.00 and it passed the MOT without any problems.
