I've been driving E46's for over 300 kmls with this disconnected. If that doesn't show improvement your problem is somewhere else.

Carlos, I believe you have the same system as on mine. A motorized butterfly valve. Only i have only the motorized shaft left :-)

Martin mate,

Mine does have a feedback sensor etc as well as all the gubbins in the pic you posted. But none of that needs cleaned, just the EGR valve.

Not sure i have ever seen a diesel with a butterfly valve to be honest.....


J4MES,

That is excatly my reckoning. ED cars aside, there are 163 E90's chrning out figures that i could only dream of having......never mind the fact that older cars with older tech engines wipe us out economy wise.
