Looks like a good way to go! But I don't have a blow torch or compressed air handy!

Hi Monocle, 

Thanks for the tutorial , I still unsure about the procedure, could you let me know why do you need to flush the radiator?

Hi @Coolissimo!

You are right to ask. It is a while since I did this but I know you have to remove the reservoir tank so at least that much of the system will need to be drained. I think I replaced the coolant at the same time hence the full drain. But, simple answer, just empty the reservoir and you should be fine!

Hi Monocle,

Thanks for the answer .How did you took off the sponge , and  did you install it again? And btw where did you get the manual? Do you think you could provide me the link too?

Thanks in advanced.

I could be wrong but I think the sponge is just held in by the EGR. Honestly can't remember but definitely not anything to worry about. 

I bought it on a disk on eBay. No link unfortunately. Only about a fiver. Well worth it.
