Stp Engine Cleaner Vs Egr Valve

[kai3747]

hi guys , before a week i put in my japanese iq about 58000km on the clock a STP fuel injector cleaner , i know that i have the old version of egr valve but never before i noticed any delay on accelarating , now after about 2 full fuel fillngs i noticed that my car delays on starting /accelarating in traffic lights ,in alts / stops ? my mechanic told me that the egr valve maybe get the "craps" of my engine system.

Does anyone have the same issue before???

As i live in Cyprus and i brought the car from Japan does anyone knows if they will change this egr for free as it was an issue in this model ??? please help ...

Two topics here on the EGR, but some of the information relates to Toyota GB:

There is a service bulletin mentioned in the first topic, but I think you would need to approach Toyota Cyprus to see what help, if any, they can provide: http://www.toyota.com.cy

Fuel...unfortunately...has hardly any influence on the EGR soot buildup ... At least this is what I read on YouTube...

More to do with the condensation of (unburnt / excess) oil in the exhaust gas.... and a bad burning motor...
