All facelift 3.0d models (M57N engine) with DPF (EU4) have intake manifold swirl flaps. There are M57N EU3 models without DPF and those don't have swirl flaps.
Thank you! So if I got it correctly:

Vacuum solenoid 1 - #11747796634 - (vacuum hose with blue stripe), located on the intake manifold controls EGR.
Vacuum solenoid 2 - #11747810831 - (vacuum hose with the yellow stripe) is located on the intake manifold and controls swirl flaps.
Vacuum solenoid 3 - #11747810831 - (vacuum hose with the red stripe) is located somewhere else (?), and is used to control engine mounts, which are again, hydraulic-controlled.

Or something like that

Thanks again!
I'll let you guys know if I finally managed to get rid of 4501 fault code. Maybe I'll also clean EGR in the process. But that's a discussion for another topic.
