Be careful with EGR valves for 2.2 TDCI / HDI 2006-2014 (Transit, Jumper and Boxer)

Tech news

Many workshops have experienced problems with the replacement of the EGR valve on the 2.2 TDCI / HDI engine of Ford Transit, Citroën Jumper and Peugeot Boxer from 2006-2014. The problems can often be attributed to the use of the wrong EGR valve, corroded plug connections or lack of engine control update. 
Depending on the model specification, one of two EGR valves must be selected - Triscan 8813 16036 or 8813 16150 respectively. The two EGR valves can be difficult to distinguish from each other and can both be mounted on all models. However, there are two conditions where they differ. One relates to the design of the cooling pipe connections and is visible to the naked eye (but often overlooked).

The second factor is the pin configuration of the connector, which is not visible to the eye, but of vital importance to whether the EGR valve will work properly.

Even if the correct EGR valve is selected, after the replacement, many find that the error codes P0401/P0402/P1402 (indicating problems with the EGR system) can still be read. But why?

In our experience, the multi-pin connectors for the engine control and EGR valve tend to oxidise. Check and clean the connections if necessary. If the problem is a defective EGR valve, it is important to initialize the new unit after replacement. If the error codes remain active after initialisation, it is because the engine controller has not been updated with the latest software version.

The two EGR valves mentioned above are covered by Triscan smartrep.info. This means that a clear marking with a warning triangle and QR code is attached to the packaging. By scanning the QR code and entering the part number on the smartrep.info website, the above information is made available to the workshop in several languages.
