• Q: How to Service and Repair the EGR Valve on 2009 Mercury Milan?

  A: A proper start to Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve service and repair requires draining the cooling system first. Initially you need to take off the air cleaner outlet pipe and then unplug the EGR valve electrical connector. Start by loosening the clamp on the upper radiator hose to remove it from the coolant outlet adapter and continue by unscrewing the clamp which detach the EGR coolant outlet hose from the EGR valve. Take out the two bolts which fasten the EGR valve while disposing of the gasket. When installing the new EGR valve secure it with torque settings of 20 Nm (177 lb-in). The sealing surfaces should be cleaned without metal scrapers, wire brushes or power abrasive discs since these tools create grooves and scratches that produce leaks. A plastic scraping tool serves best for clear out old EGR valve gasket material. The application of metal surface prep procedures becomes possible to clean and ready the joining surfaces when no remaining gasket material is detected. Complete the installation by reversing the removal steps and then perform a cooling system fillup followed by bleeding procedures.
