Mitsubishi Lancer - EGR Repair & Cleaning - 2007-2015

- čas přidán 17. 04. 2021
- 2007-2015 Lancer with multiple EGR codes, the replacement part is very expensive. I removed tested, cleaned and fixed EGR issues my and you can fix yours too. In the video I show how I used a multimeter to test that the electronics were still good. Then I show how I cleaned it with throttle body cleaner, paper towels, nylon pry tools to remove as much carbon as I could. I made sure the valve was moving by pressing it with a plastic tool. After I put the EGR back in and cleared the codes, they never came back. Effective solution that doesn't involve $500 for a new EGR!

This video is exactly what I need. Now I just need to hope the electronics on the valve are still working. You saved me $600 bucks for the part. Thank you
I dont think they are that expensive still worth it either way I think a new one is the way to go
Car feels and runs like brand new after cleaning this thing and the throttle body. Thank you for making this video.
dude been searching for this for weeks.. appreciate the video man very clear visual process
I’m so glad to hear that! Really beats buying a new one, hope it works out!
Pretty simple if you’re used to working in tight spaces, great video man
Thank you!
Great DIY video! I got my EGR cleaned up today, not to bad and your video really helped. I figured out the crux move to make it easy to get my 10mm swivel ratchet wrench onto the top 10mm bolt on the EGR valve was to simply pry the metal bracket that supports the CVT dipstick tube about an 1/8th" away from the bolt. I did remove the big radiator hose in the way as I wanted to lose some of the old fluid anyway. And also pulled the battery as I wanted to replace the small paper filter for the CVT fluid cooler that is hidden under the 2 battery support brackets that are crazy tricky to remove. I checked the ohms and all the pins on the stepper motor read 22.9 ohms resistance. I can't believe how they design all of this stuff, being so crammed into a tiny space, it must be to make money for the dealers with $140/hour labor and expensive parts??? And I cleaned up the filthy throttle body. I used a couple cans of brake clean and some huge oversized q tips and rags. I lost 2 codes, P0401 and also P0420 and the dash engine warning light. Drives great and no more surging idle at lights or hesitation from a stop sign after just cleaning throttle body. Next is to figure out how to drain radiator or pull the lower hose for a radiator flush???
How did you manage to take off bolts to do paper filter? I bought a filter year ago, but couldn’t change it so end up changing only trans oil
This is the best video what I am looking for, thanks
Thank you very much! :)
I've done this before and you can access the egr bolts without removing anything at all. This took me all of 10 mins.
does it have gasket in between ?
How
Yes there's a gasket. And is snaked my arm down to it after removing the hoses and connector. Used a flex head ratchet with a small extension (1-3in.) And it's out... saves alot of time I've cleaned mine multiple times because they're 400 bucks to replace.
Awesome video!
What if there’s build up in the other part that doesn’t come out like the other 2 little holes ?? I seen black inside that
Okay so I have a es sedan 2011, when I get on the gas it accelerates horribly slow, high rpm before it shifts, and it just feels like the car don’t have power! No CEL or lights on at all! Can anyone help me w/ an answer, will cleaning my egr fix it?
Thanks for the video! Would it help if i removed the throttle body as well? I took it off before n cleaned it (super dirty) but i wasn’t able to get in to the engine portion of it because it was so cramped. Thanks!
Thanks, very helpful, i think should be added, the movement the air intake, for have more space to work. I did it wiht a mitsubhisi asx its the smae process. Muy util agregaria quitar la entrada de aire para ganar espacio en la asx. pero funciona al cien
Great vid - many thanks. Did the EGR valve have a gasket? I've just removed one from an Outlander and heard something drop as I pulled the unit off suspecting it may have been a gasket.
Same question. Does it has a gasket?
Yes it does
My outlander got a 4b12 engine is this almost the same as with the lancer? 4b11?
Should this be the same procedure for a 2016 model too?
do we need to replace all the egr or only the electric part?
What year is this lancer? For some reason the top screw is blocked by the dipstick housing how did you get around that
What u think , can egr off help ?
Just like everyone else on here, I’ve been looking for a tutorial on removing this damn valve for the longest time and I couldn’t thank you enough! I’m just having trouble on removing the 2 - 12mm bolts far out enough to wiggle the valve out of place. One of them keeps getting stuck up on the bracket that holds the CVT fluid dipstick when I try pulling it out. Any tips?
Hey Luis, I'm at exactly the same point. Did you have to remove the dipstick bracket?
I've gotten one bolt out but the other can't back out any further without hitting the bracket.
Nevermind lol. Got it, it does just barely angle out of there with enough wiggling. Nothing else needed to be removed.
@@loucrawford5690 sorry for the delay! i still haven't been able to remove that one bolt without hitting the bracket. i tend to lose my patience really quick. lol but im glad you were able to manage!
@@LuisHernandez-tn9nj thanks Luis, if it helps at all on your next attempt. I removed the bottom bolt completely. Then I backed the top bolt all the way out to the bracket, then back in just a smidge, then with enough wiggling it came out with the head of the bolt towards the the front of the car.
I don’t know anything about cars and no shop wants to clean my egr valve they just want to replace it which is more expensive.
you have to believe in your capacity ! do it!! ;)
Same here. Just the part itself is $500
Gracias me ayudo mucho
Which lancer model is this? Thank you
I have engine detonation problem with my lancer, Do you think this can fix that??
No codes or check engine light is on
I think spark plugs or coils could be your problem but replace your PCV valve first, i dont think the EGR can have anything to do with it
I'm still confused cuz where this egr is and where mine should be is what's confusing it has a plate over where it looks like it should be but not there at all
Did you ever find out where it was? thats the problem im having rn, its just a plate with a sensor attached
I have a 2013 es I don’t see the egr what’s different on mine ?
Nvm just looked at the video again thank you I’m see if I can hopefully clean it and not buy a new one tomorrow
No EGR Gasket?
Yes or not?
Yes
That throttle body looks desperate for a cleaning as well ...
