This Insignia lost power and cut out, logging P0402 EGR Excessive flow.
Take a walk with me through this common problem.
Apologies for the abrupt ending but I was mercilessly struck down with Man-flu before I could film the conclusion.
A new EGR valve, fitted and adapted correctly cured this fault.

To be fair, when these engines are tip top brand new, setting the faults aside - they are a strong engine. It's a fun diesel in my book.

Gratzme Gaming it has its strengths when the vehicle is listed. When it isn’t then you just put a request in for the information you want and wait. It has its weaknesses as well but it’s invaluable to me seeing such a variety of vehicles and faults.

@@benjaminrich9396 GM Powertrain separately developed their diesel engines based on 1.9 JTD, after end of "marriage" between GM and Fiat,[20] and first was 160 PS (120 kW; 160 hp) version for Astra and Insignia, which was later upgraded to 165 PS for Astra (163 PS in restyled version of Insignia), and less powerful version for Insignia with 110 PS and 130 PS. In 2011 GM Powertrain Europe developed a new derivative - the twin-turbocharger BiTurbo version, with 195 PS (143 kW; 192 hp), which is used in the Insignia and starting with 2013 in the Astra J. Internally the new engine is referred to as GM Ecotec Family B engine. The same engine was also available in the 2011 Saab 9-5 with 160 PS and 190 PS twin-turbo. In 2013 Opel introduced cleaner and more fuel efficient versions of the 2.0 CDTI engine and the ecoFLEX version, with 99 g/km of CO2 and 120 PS (140 PS for Insignia).

I have had the same error on my 2012 2.0 CDTi Astra. My car seems okay apart from start/ stop doesn’t seem to work anymore. A Vauxhall specialist told me I have a stuck open EGR then they told me I must have a EGR cooler leak however that was 2 months ago and I haven’t lost any coolent, they want to replace this at a cost of £1500.

Hi Mate you said after you have given it a clean you have to reset the EGR positions or it will have the old readings still. I'm just a DIYer . So if I clean the EGR will I still have to take it to a service station to reset the positions of the EGR ? is that correct? I've only got one of those cheap blue tooth OBDII connectors modules that just reads data. or will the computer reset itself when I clear the error ...............Cheers

@SimplyDiagnostics 5 жыл бұрын

It's always a good idea to reset the adaptions after cleaning. OBD tools won't normally do this function. Try it and see how you get on.

@SimplyDiagnostics 5 жыл бұрын

The next vehicle I see with this fault I will show the process. It's normally just a couple of button presses with a scantool. Some vehicles (not all & not this particular car) also require a software update or patch. There are also vehicles that only the OE dealer tool should be used for this process to avoid irreparable damage to controllers and components.
