hi, im a second year apprentice technician for lexus. as you probably know we have a new diesel out the IS220d. i have been trying to find information on EGR systems, especially the new toyota D4D engine and the ford 2.5 turbo diesel engine.
Can anyone help me?
Cheers

Hi there,
so what is it you want to know, what an EGR is, how it works, or specific to those vehicles?
Thanks
Admin

sorry internet crashed so havent been able to reply.

if possible a detailed descrition of how it works, as we have covered the basics at college. i would be helpful if you culd dig up some info on the toyota d4d engine

thanks

Hi again,
I will be doing a few pages and a couple of diagrams very soon but as I am extremely busy with work, I have found this link for you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_gas_recirculation

Hope it helps

Hello All,

Have been so busy lately, haven't had time to look at the site, but just wanted to check in and say hi. Saw the MPH Show-brilliant! No Veyron, sadly, but loads of quality machines instead. I was seriously tempted to buy an MG that was for sale, but managed to keep my credit card in my wallet!
I have in fact bought a car, and was wondering if anyone has any advice-it's a K-reg Renault Clio and I think I might have a water leak, as the fan seems to be a bit rusty. Is this something I can take care of myself? Or am I going to have to find a garage? And this might sound a bit weird, but when I'm driving along with the heater blowing, any increase in speed seems to make the heater louder-it's probably normal and I'm probably being dumb, but I do worry...

Anyway, must shoot off, hope all is well with you,
Hope to hear from you soon,

Veyron Girl.

thanks alot mate. really helpful stuff.

have you checked the colant level in the car?is your car over heating or engine temp getting hotter than usual

Cheers for that Frenchy, I just had a look and it was as dry as a bone-good job I never went to Brighton last week.....
Like the look of the site now, Admin, good diagrams on understeer/oversteer and the four stroke engine. Hopefully I'll get a chance to have a really good read soon.
Have you finished your course? How did you get on?

Gotta go, talk soon,

Veyron Girl.

Yes I have finished a while ago, passed with a distinction in all subjects , just doing a bit of odd work here and there for now, that is why I still struggle to find time to complete this site, even though I really want to get it done. Trouble is, there are so many parts of a car it is hard to do them all on my own.
Cheers for the comments about the site, I thought it was a bit outdated, so I gave it a quick re-design.
