thanks for the advice! once I get to removing the manifolds I will touch base with you on my findings! a delete is just a thought I had. before spending the 2 grand on a EGR valve. is it common or have you ever seen a valve head break on one of these engines and land in the cooler? btw we are fairly close as well i'm just inside of south Carolina just above Spartanburg. also is there a special way to bleed all the air out of this coolant system i have a had a rough time bleeding the air out after i changed the egr valve/ flushed the cooler and a new e-up pump, it holds air and randomly pushes coolant out of the over flow? any thoughts on this ?

also the reason for the delete inquiry is, a piece of the egr valve was found in my egr cooler.....

joey mack im assuming it is warped. I am a auto and light diesel tech and this is my personal truck I just started working on, so when i say warped i am basing tha off my light duty diesel and auto experience, it has multiple broken exh. man. studs.

I am working on my 05 cxn E7 looking into deleting the egr, now i realize i need to leave the egr valve connected electrically to not produce a fault code. now secondly i have a warped exhaust manifold with broken studs, so couldnt i just use a non egr e7 manifold and tie up the egr valve and leave it connected? has anyone ever done this and where did you source the parts any tips for correction of these issues is appreciated!
