The stupid emissions engineers who designed this retarded booty EGR system. It took me all weekend, and with my brother's help, but I replaced the FCV with minimal issues and lots of swearing. The way that whole intake and EGR system is set up is retarded. And talk about the GUNK that builds up BEHIND the EGR track. I can't beleive they didn't identify that during designing.

With the money I saved though, I 'accidentally' ordered the SS MBRP Exhaust for her! Once I get her smogged, GDE here I come!

My FCV failed.

Since it doesn't make any difference if it works or not, I decided not to replace it.

I am happy with my solution.

There's no way i would replace the fcv. I have removed, and re installed my (fcv sorta a pita) to clean the crap out of there , you know what i'm talking about, but i would never buy another one :P. You dont really need it, you know :P

LOL, it doesn't throw a CEL. And I doubt if it will make any difference in passing the emissions test.

Sure it does "EGR Valve Insufficent Flow' unless I wasted my weekend cussing.

That sure is interesting, it sounds like was associated with computer data, not the actual opacity test.

Ill lay money that with a declawed cat and a SEGR you would still pass emissions just fine. Everything is there visually and no CEL's. You'll be happy too....

What's the FCV and what's it do ?

I'm pondering buying a CRD soon. Is this an issue with all CRDs ??

Katmandu,

Check out this link, it is a thread in the Tech section. The FCV stands for "Flow Control Valve," it is a valve on the intake that controls the flow of exhaust gas from the EGR valve into the intake.
