New EGR gasket positioning

Featured Replies

Folks, after looking at the following link I am about to try this

http://www.fabia-vrs.com/technical-info/blt-engine-hesitation-fix

It says to try the gasket at position 11.

Do I keep the gasket that is already in at position 6 and have an old one at 6 and new one at 11 or do I remove 6 and just have the new one at 11?

Replace 6 with the new one. Cross fingers and hope you don't get a CEL. If you do, enlarge hole to 11-12mm and try again.

mine fitted with no issues or lights

take the pipe that goes to the air box off too, undo the 2 bolts and use the gasket to knock the old one out and slide the new one in

30 mins is generous but it is easy going

Cheers guys

Fitted mine in position 6 solved hessitation and no warning lights the only issue was the bolts wanted to cross thread themselves as the flange would not sit flush. I have a spare gasket if you need one.
