1.4 Petrol EGR valve location

Hi all,

This is my first post, and after trawling through the great web, and this forum, I'm trying to locate the EGR valve in the 1.4i 2008 C3 Cachet I have.
The car has flashed up with the anti pollution fault, so wanted to check the EGR…assuming it has one (I've seen replacement EGRs for sale, so assume it has one!).
I have seen other causes of the anti pollution fault (i.e. leaky washer jets) and reckon it's not that.
Any help…or location guidance…would be most appreciated!

Thanks,

John

That message is a bit of a cover all message. A cheap OBD2 reader from ebay would bring up the code that gives the error. With the code from the OBD you can make a better diagnosis of your actual fault or at least point you in the right direction.



A typical OBD reader for the C3 petrol

Thanks for the advice and link.
I didn't realise OBD readers were so affordable now. Have just ordered one.
Will let you know how I get on.

Hopefully the fault code is something easy to resolve!

Got the diagnostic gear today. (super fast delivery!)
Checked the fault codes, and P0204 came up, Injector Circuit / Open Cylinder 4.

Will do some fault finding to see whether the wiring to the injector is damaged.
I hear that changing injectors can be….troublesome.

Hello john-witney,
How did the diagnosis go?
