egr replacement

[1badqx4]

Does anyone know how difficult it is to replace the egr and egr sensor on 99qx4 r50 4wd? I did replace the knock sensor and know I am throwing code for egr. any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried taking it off and cleaning it? Sometimes little bits of carbon can build up and cause the egr valve to stick. Carb cleaner and a metal pipe brush and letting it soak would probably be all you really need. Plus it's cheaper than buying a new one.

I have not even removed it, I am wondering how hard it would be ro remove and replace I got the new EGR AND SENSOR from a buddy at infinit for $125.00 for both. so I rather replace them with new then clean out.

Not that hard at all. Cracking the big nut free can be a pain. But other than that it is pretty simple, un bolt and bolt on process.

If the big nut is stuck, pb blaster and heat are your friend. I've found that once the nut is loose it'll unscrew fairly easily. Just remember to put antiseize on the threads just incase you ever need to remove the intake or something it'll be easier.

_{So what all needs to be removed to get to the egr?}

Copper anti-seize to be more specific. It is for high heat application. The aluminum based not so much.
