Has nobody had an EGR replaced on a 4.4 TDV8?

Goedemorgen, kan je helaas niet helpen, maar misschien krijg je eerder antwoord als je "EGR replacement" toevoegt aan je titel. Overigens lijkt anderhalve dag werk me wat ruim bemeten.

jackie-o: Sorry, cannot help you with the EGR labour time, but, having car OCD I would consider replacing your oil cooler rather than replacing just the gaskets. Simply because all the time and labour to do your EGR and if in the future your oil cooler fails, then that's a 4.5 hours job just on it's own. I had the dreaded oil cooler leak [whether it was just the gaskets I don't know] but the local Indy changed the oil cooler itself [genuine LR]. Total job came to £700. If I had put my foot down & said "just change the gaskets" I'm sure they would have but we chose to do the complete job. Think a genuine LR oil cooler is around £300 +/-

@fox889; makes complete sense what you are saying. The only thing that makes me reluctant is that no one seems to have an issue with the actual cooler breaking, its always the gaskets...but maybe you´re right and it´s worth just changing the whole thing...

@ kevinp; These are 30 gbp each from LR so gbp 120 for all four...you do mean the 4 short hoses from the air intake manifold right? RR Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - 11

Yes mate. I just cut the hose into 4 x 56mm lengths using the jubilee clip as a guide to cut it square. |
