Toyota Avensis 2.2 d4d 2009 - Code P0488/15 - Fixed #

Posted by Sean Savage on May 16, 2013, 1:20 pm

Year of Manufacture *: 2009
Engine Size and Code *: 2.2

We have had 2 of these in now with man light on and fault code p0488/15 stored. Exhaust gas re-circulation throttle control range/performance stored. Don't just fit an EGR valve it won't cure it. The fault is the throttle body unit below the EGR valve at the front of the engine. You will find the throttle flap seized solid.

Regards

Sean

Had one myself and agree, the one i did i suspect failed because of the coolant venting on to it when the vehicle overheated.

Had this return today with very similar fault. The inlet manifold where the egr valve fixes onto was completely blocked with carbon etc.
