Hi all, sorry if these are simple questions but I'm new to Audi and the 2.0 TDI (140) engine and have a couple of things to ask. After looking on here I've read about the EGR/Anti Shudder valve and wonder if mine might need a service/clean?
If I boot my car at night with streetlights on or a car behind me illuminating the road I can see some smoke in the rear view mirror, but I can't see it in the day time so I assume it's not too bad. Also, when I turn the ignition off, I feel a slight shudder from the car. It's only slight... but the fact I can see some smoke, and I'm getting this little shudder, I'm wondering whether I might need to clean the EGR?
If I were to clean the EGR would I be able to clean the anti shudder valve at the same time?
Any help is appreciated, again sorry for the amateur questions but I have tried searching and can't find specific answers.
