Hi, just wondering if anyone could confirm whether the EGR valve on a 180 is in the same location as on the 137?
Just wondering as I can't find one on our 180 and where I'd expect to see it there's just a metal blanking plate, not even a solenoid in sight. If that's the case it'd have to have been remapped to not throw a code right? (speaking from experience on the HDi where I can happily blank the vacuum port off but if I disconnect the solenoid wiring then it goes limp-mode).
Confused as I don't see any loose plugs up there either, the only "redundant" plug is down under the air filter (nasty cone "cold" air jobbie, airbox gone but mixer flap underneath still intact feeding to nowhere) and that's a 3 pin brown plug nowhere near anything.
EDIT- on doing further research does the 180 even have EGR?

180’s do not have an EGR valve mate.

Thanks for confirming that, I managed to reactivate my servicebox account last night and looked at the diagram. That would explain the professional looking blanking plate then lol Still not fully got my head round the air injection system but not had time to look how it all works yet, from what I gather though it pumps fresh air into the exhaust upstream of the cat providing a similar effect?
