Hiccups cured
Hiccups cured
Hi All
In one of my previous posts I complained of jerky issues, a better description is hiccups between gear changes.
The car is an 06 with 53k, I changed the original spark plugs and no change whatsoever. The wires etc all seem good.
I noticed the issue wasn't there when car was cold so then thought the EGR valve could be sticking.
As a quick fix, I used Wynns EGR cleaner, a spray used directly into the intake while holding revs at 2000rpm.
The good news is the issue has almost disappeared.
I intend to remove the EGR when the weather improves and clean thoroughly but have to say I am impressed with this spray, Well worth £10, even if used as a maintenance job on a yearly basis.
Had issues with EGR valves on other cars and in general, are a pain in the ****, thankfully on the crossfire, it doesn't seem too much hassle to remove.
Thought I'd just post this in case anyone has similar issues.
