I presume that you have a 3Litre Patrol.....if you have diagosed the problem as the EGR, then buy another one to replace it.

You can try Gary from Nizzbits, as he normally sells bits a little cheaper than the dealers themselves.

You could try blanking off the EGR, but this may still give you an error code, depending on what is wrong with yours.

There are numerous reference documents which detail exactly how to replace the EGR valve, so do a search for these and see what you can find.

It'll help prevent your 3 ltr from going kaboom........

Not saying it will but there's always a chance........... There's a lot of info on here in regards to what needs to be done, try the search function up near the top and search for NADS

Tap till ya can tap no more.....

No Mate, if it's the 3L, there are 5 bolts holding it on, why don't you just block it and be done with it'

Hi Mate, my advice to you would be to do a search "egr block zd30" everything will be revealed.
When you have decided what you want to do, PM me and I will supply the blocking plate with instructions.
Cheers, the ferret.
