  2. If you have been suffering limp mode when engine is under load, and if the car seems not quite as powerful this could help/solve the problem ok here goes. Engine must have cooled before trying this as mr muscle is flammable and its easy to get scalded by a hot turbo mr muscle and a good 2 metres of silicone hose small enough to fit over end of spray part of tin (once you have removed the nozzle and just have the plastic outlet sticking straight up) I used an elbow to make life easier as i can just press it, but most can squeeze it with needle nose pliers and push it in to squirt the product down the tube Now this is the egr valve, will be in a similar but not the same place on yours but principly it will match. Underneath on the bottom of this item there is a metal pipe coming down, held on by 2 alan bolts - undo these. On the next pic i have shoved the camera down the back of the engine and have the other end of that pipe to the egr - here it is bolted to the mannifould (circled yellow) undo these nuts, they are tricky and quite stiff but will move imagining these are undone you can remove the pipe completely. Now the yellow line signifies where the pipe needs to go if you could see through the turbo- make sure it goes down and not into a cylinder - its hard to get wrong but show care. once silicone pipe is passed down into turbo until it cant go no further attach the mr muscle (well shaken) and scoosh it in until product comes up out of the hole (where the yellow circle is again) it doesnt take too much to do this. Once it appears whip out the silicone hose. Circled red is the actuater linkage and this is connected to what causes the problems, pump it up and down (itll be hard on the thumb but persevere) it will free off and get really smooth - do this regularly over a 2hr period. REATTACH EGR PIPE then go for a run gently at first than when warm you must go to rev limit in second is best - she will dump all the guff and smoke and hopefully be sorted. Caution the engine must be at least sitting cool for a couple hours as mr muscle is flamable, and you can get badly burned by turbo/mannifould
