I know EGR is a common subject on here but I am a relative newbie on the forums and could't find any answers. I'm also a novice mechanic when it comes to these complicated engines!
I have a 2008 2.0tdi 170 engine in my avant Special Edition. Have hesitation at 1800rpm that has gradually got worse over the last 12 months. Have considered stopping the EGR off and cleaning but think people have mixed results on solving the hesitation so thought I'd try the Wynns EGR cleaner to see if it made a difference before complete strip down and clean - my issue now is where to introduce the cleaner without damaging the MAF as I have no idea where this is - an embarrassing state of knowledge and severe loss of man points!!
Any pointers would be appreciated!
