How to Service and Repair an EGR Tube for Upper Tube on 2006 Dodge Magnum?

Question

Accepted Answer

The first thing you should do when servicing the EGR upper tube is locate the upper tube, EGR valve and lower tube. First, take out the negative battery wire and release the purge solenoid from its post so you can relocate it. Get rid of all the upper tube bolts holding the EGR valve in place and disconnect the electrical connector from it. Remove the upper tube from the intake manifold without letting the seals drop into the manifold. EGR valve leakage caused by dirt on its gasket can result in a rough engine idle and less vacuum in the manifold, so remember to clean the surfaces. While installing, stay away from scraping metal to clean the EGR valve mounting area since it could damage the seal. Make sure no particles or particles get into the EGR valve during your cleaning. Examine and tidy the gasket surfaces where the EGR tube joins and attach new silicone rubber seals to the EGR tube at the intake manifold end, placing them 17 mm before the flange. Coat the tube hole that holds the EGR in the intake manifold with Mopar®. Throw a bit of Rubber Bushing Installation Lube into the bushing area while assembling, but avoid touching the EGR tube or seal. Insert the EGR tube into the intake manifold and ensure the seals are not crimped or crushed as you verify the placement. Install a new gasket between the EGR valve and tube, after which seal the bolts to 15 Nm. The EGR tube flange can be up to 2 mm above the intake manifold and it will still give a proper seal. Join the electrical connector back to the EGR valve and make sure no wires or cables come into contact with the tube. After that, connect the negative battery cable, unplug the solenoid from the tool, reinstall it in the bracket, put it on its intended hole and tighten the nut to 5 Nm.
