Understanding EGR Valve

The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve feeds a controlled amount of exhaust gas back into the intake to lower combustion temperatures and reduce nitrogen oxide emissions. Most Land Rover diesels, from the Td5 to the V6 diesels and Ingenium engines, have EGR, and many also have an EGR cooler that uses engine coolant to cool the recirculated gas.

Soot builds up in the valve and cooler, especially on vehicles used for short trips, and valves can stick open or closed. A leaking EGR cooler can also let coolant into the intake.

Questions

Common Questions About Land Rover EGR valve

Can a Land Rover EGR valve be cleaned?

A sooty valve can sometimes be cleaned and returned to service, especially if the actuator still works. If the valve is electrically faulty or badly worn, replace it.

How do I know if my EGR cooler is leaking?

Unexplained coolant loss, white smoke and coolant residue in the intake are warning signs. A workshop can pressure-test the cooling system to confirm.

Should I blank off my EGR valve?

Blanking or deleting the EGR changes the emissions system and usually causes fault codes on modern diesels. It is not a proper repair. Fix or replace the valve instead.

What should I send to order an EGR valve?

The VIN and engine code, and say whether you need the valve, the cooler or connecting pipes.

Not sure which part fits?

Send your VIN or engine code and the SparesBoyz parts team will check fitment before quoting. Parts are couriered nationwide.
