Bdc101 is on a distinguished road
Almost got stuck coming home from literally the first trip in our new 2012 35d. 18 hours after purchase and it threw a code for EGR valve control and went into limp mode (which, holy crap! Hardly made it home).



Codes were 40E9 EGR position control, 4B81 EGR flow rate deviation, and 4CF9 EGR valve plausibility.


I reset the codes and they came back immediately. Then I used my Foxwell to exercise the HP EGR valve (that was the only one that there was an option for - not sure if there is even a LP EGR valve or not) and reset codes again and they didn't come back, even after a test drive. The code didn't specify whether it was the HP or LP EGR cooler valve.

The PO had the HP EGR cooler replaced about 2 years ago. I can't even find the valve on RealOEM though. Is the valve integrated into the cooler or is it a separate device?

Looks like I dodged the first bullet. But maybe need to get an EGR valve on order.

Want mine???
