Hi People

On my 51 plate Leon 1.4 16V, the engine management light has been on for some time now..(two years!!) The Car is running fine though.

I had it checked by a garage and the fault code came up for "EGR Valve flow too slow". I've searched forums on this but can't find much info apart from TDI owners bypassing theirs??

Is there any way to fix this problem apart from the expensive route of replacing the EGR Valve? I read forums where people stated to clean the EGR valve out. How and What with?

I want to trade the car in for a newer model Leon but the dealer won't be too generous with a trade-in price if he sees the engine management light on!!

Any help would be appreciated! :1zhelp:
