2.0 HDI 110 8V SOHC - Peugeot 307 SW Antipollution fault - scammell

Hi there,

My 307 has 136K on the clock and has just got and anti pollution warning for the first time. I got my local garage to read the fault codes and I got the following: P0487 exhaust gas recirculation fault and P0400 EGR valve.

I know this is a very tricky subject, please help me.What could be causing this?

Kind regards, David, a worried owner!

Just to as the car drives as normal, has loads of power and the RPM is not limited. The additive soot burning process seems to work too as I could smell it when I blasted the car down the road tonight.

What could be causing it? Hmmmm....my guess would be to look at the EGR valve first. :)

It might just need taking out and cleaning.
