UPDATE 12/2/2021: turns out there were three separate failures on my TDI. ON THE SECOND FAILURE I FOUND VW had published an extended warranty to 10 years or 123k miles. I had to replace my EGR valve, heater core clog, and an emissions flap (?). All covered under warranty. Here’s a copy: https://www.vwdiesellookup.com/pdf/VW...

I usually watch videos for my DIY car projects. I couldn’t find a video on the EGR for the MK6. It’s different enough from the older versions I figured I’d upload what I learned. I’m definitely not a pro youtuber, just a frequent watcher and a fairly experienced mechanic trying to give back to the community. I hope you find this helpful.

Covers the VW Jetta MK6, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018.
Might cover the Beetle, Passat, and Golf but I'm not sure.
