As yet it hasn't escalated to the level that Mercedes had with Delphi injectors on its BlueEfficiency diesel models around 2010/11 - these had a huge failure rate leading to massive back-orders from dealers. Made worse by the fact that M-B's policy was to only replace the individual failed injectors, not all of them at the same time, meaning some owners had multiple failures and dealer visits over a period of months. Let's hope this doesn't happen with the VEA motor! |

Of course, your issue might well be different but thought this might help if it crops up again. Arianne

Update - my dealer contacted me just now to say they have the second updated versions of the EGR valves in from Sweden.
If you're waiting, contact your dealer. |

Just out of interest I had my EGR done at 6k after a warning light. Mpg these days is about 35, reading on here folks seem to have quite varied mpg even on similar journeys. Could these two be related; poor mpg and duff EGR?

Could be. Mine goes in today and mpg has been around the 40-41mpg mark for the last month or so. If it improves after the fix then the answer will be yes. If it doesn't then clearly any impact is negligible. (okay, not a scientifically wide survey but I'll post anyway. If others do the same then we may see a pattern)

My mpg hasn't really changed since I got the 'check engine' light -- certainly nothing that can't be explained by the recent cold weather / short trips.
On longer trips the fuel economy quickly rises to early 50s mpg, just as it was before the check light came on. |

Mine was replaced yesterday, no detectable change in driving behaviour or economy from what I can see (which is as it should be, of course).

I had the EGR valve replaced at around 5k, and the light came on again at just over 10k last week. It's going in to be looked at next week, but when I put an OBD scanner in the car to have a look, it was the EGR fault code as before.
Anyone else been through 2 EGR valves in < 12 months ? |
