+1 for forte injector cleaner. Used on petrol and diesel vehicles and it’s worked really well. Especially before emissions tests.

- took off the top of the EGR - again something you have to do (mine had been deleted/closed early days via BAS, on taking it apart it was all clean)


On the 2.2 with a DPF my understanding is you can’t just blank / fully close an EGR without also mapping out and removing the DPF as they work in conjunction. Is that the case with yours ?

Dont know much about the EGR delete on the 2.2, I only took it off to allow the inlet manifold to be removed, it was all clean and refitted it.
All I know is that whent eh 150bhp smooth tune was released by BAS it was electronically deleted (or what ever his map does) then when the 170bhp map was available loaded that
I was surprised how clean the EGR was and how clean the inlet maifold was compared to pictures I had seen of others. 3 working glow plugs were nice and clean whist the dead one carboned up.

I want to thank Iktank for their post.
Rather than ramble on about DPF fears I thought I should share my glow plug changing story.
As I had no idea what the DPF status was on our 2.2 Puma I bought a Topdon ArtiDiag500 S code reader.
Even though the EML was off there was a code P06B9-00 Cylinder 1 Glow Plug Circuit Range Performance. Sure enough a multimeter check showed the resistance of GP1 to be 40 ohms (should be 1 or less).
This set off alarm bells as inoperative glow plugs prevent DPF regeneration. I couldn't find any DPF regen information regarding this code so I decided to replace the glow plugs.

I couldn't find any YouTube videos on the Defender 2.2 and now I know why. On a Transit this job is a piece of cake. Iktank's post was all I could find on the Defender and I wanted to share my experience just in case it helps someone else in the future.

You have to remove the fuel pipe LR094764 and I undid the egr pipe into the inlet manifold. I couldn't get the pipe out but it did give me enough wriggle room to manipulate the manifold. I also released the two phillips screws and M8 bolt on the heater controls to improve access to GP4. With this extra millimetre or two I was able to pop out the intake manifold bolts. I've included a photo to show how they are retained.

Also I found a long Torx 30 bit which was needed to remove the EGR body, for access to the final inlet manifold bolt. Watching all those YouTube videos on stuck glow plugs I said a prayer, used a long 3/8th 10mm socket and set my torque wrench to 13nm. Miraculously all glow plugs came out without a fight (see the photo of their condition).

I reassembled everything with a smidge of aluminium anti seize and hey presto no fault codes. As the plugs released with 13nm that was the tightening setting used.

Interestingly the Torque Pro app I have on my phone did not find the glow plug DTC.

Rather than use unbranded cheapo eBay, I used Bosch replacements part no. 0 250 403 024 but the originals were Beru FoMoCo BK3Q 6M090 AB. I would be interested to know if any knowledgeable forum members have experience of either to share.

I know only one plug was faulty but I considered it false economy not to replace all of them.

Also a shout out of appreciation for Kennedy's garage and O'Rileys Autos on YouTube for their various content on Fords and Peugeots that use this engine.
