What does EGR position sensor do?
The EGR Position sensor detects the movement and position of the EGR valve pintle. The EGR Pressure sensor detects exhaust gas flow through the EGR passage.
Do you need to replace EGR valve?
Typically if your vehicle has been made in the last two decades, it is outfitted with an EGR valve. While there is no set mileage that it should be replaced, it is important to check that it is in good working order. It is suggested that every 50,000 miles you have a carbon cleaning done, which is an air induction.
How do I get rid of carbon build up?
Clean away the remaining carbon with solvent, using fine steel wool to smooth rough spots. You can also soak metal parts for up to 15 minutes to remove stubborn deposits. Scrape again, if necessary, to loosen stubborn grit. Then, clean the area thoroughly with the solvent and set the head aside.

How often should you Carbon Clean your engine?
By keeping crucial engine components clean, TerraClean reduces wear and tear and enhances overall life of parts. We recommend semi-regular TerraCleans as part of a preventative maintenance schedule, approximately every 15,000 miles.
Is TerraClean worth doing?
Using TerraClean every 15,000 miles or so will therefore boost your engine’s performance and even help with your annual MOT. If you travel frequently, or add more miles each year, then it is worth considering a more frequent TerraClean service.
