EGR bolts
just bought an egr bypass kit for my 2005 D3 and wondering what's the best advice to get the bolts out please
warm the engine up first , or better cold,
need to get some plus gas and will give them a good spray before hand
just wondering what the success rate it of them coming out in one go
bought the bypass kit from bell autos as i thought it better to buy from them instead of some cheap ones off ebay , so i knew they were a decent quality
apologise for asking a question that i imagine has been asked many times before
couldn't find a link, only about the kits
removed my map today and dread to think what the egr system is like , in going by what my map looks like
pic of before and after
thks in advance

Proper gunmed up!
Plenty of plus gas and get new bolts as they'll be quite corroded.Bodsys Brake Bible

thks bodsy
is all cleaned out ready to go back
will i just need four new bolts plse,
imagine the egr pipes are in a right mess ,
was strange after its been fine then all of a sudden going up a step hill it seeemd to be gutless, struggling
i parked up and once i started it up again seemed fine
would faulty egr valves possibly cause that , don't think the bunged up map sensor helped m couldn't even see the hole
will check before i put it back that the hole isn't blocked as well, hoover should do the trick

I used the cheapo ebay egr blank plates and 14 odd k later still good, doddle to do bolts came out and went back in all with no hassle.
Keep anything you take off just in case the mot laws change in the future.
