From what you describe, probably a stuck EGR valve. Carbon build up most likely.

AFAIK on the later cars, blanking the EGR completely throughs up a fault. Hence the availability of an EGR plate with a hole. Jules |

Hi Arcellius I have exactly the same issue with the same error codes flagging up. After trying an aerosol cleaner to little effect I have now bought a replacement EGR valve and am halfway through the job of replacing it. Beware that access to the hoses to the EGR and Cooler is extremely restricted and has required a lot of dismantling so far - I will let you know how I get on! If you end up running it to a garage to have the EGR fitted I would be keen to know what they quote for the job.. Best Jack |

No need to remove the bulkhead at all. All work is done from the top. It takes about an hour to remove the EGR valve assembly. 2009 Rimini Red SE TD4. Soon to be sold.

Quick Q? How did you manage without removing the secondary bulkhead?

I don't see how you can manage this without removing the secondary bulkhead.
