I was getting some errors on the VCDS and found that I getting an emissions error and we found that the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve was showing some issues and when it was removed, we found that it was gunged up.
Ideally, EGR Valves should be cleaned every 50K-100k km’s to avoid replacement.
Ignoring a faulty EGR valve can lead to permanent engine failure so pretty important.
It was replaced with a new OEM part. Part Number: 070128070F
Parts and Installation Costs
OEM EGR valve: €350
Labour: €100
Total Cost: €450
