Hi
I noticed lots of wet oily **** under my EGR and on closer inspection there was quite a gap (at least 5mm) where the lower of the EGR meets the Plastic Inset Manifold.
As I started to undo the bolt I could see the metal lug through the gap turning too.
Ive now removed the EGR, cleaned, inspected and fitted again (as I need to use the car still).
Am I going to have to remove and replace the entire Inlet Manifold? I assume there's no way to fit in a new metal lug that will cut in?
Thanks
Louis
