This (or preferably blanking) is still the preferred workaround in T5 circles. Maybe a soak in Mr Muscle if things are really bad.

Odd you mention that, the guys in a motor factors shop suggested this but with a lot of caution. They had cleaner to clean it but stated you ‘need to know what you are doing’ as it heats up. I have no idea what they meant. I don’t think it’s a diy job as access is limited below the car.

I suspect I am flogging a dead horse at the moment. 14 yr old A6. Faults currently - EGR causing major driving issues (hoping a cheap fix with work - if not £500+ to repair), AC not working, drivers door lock not working, suspension needs some attention. Car also needs a service. It also has some rust on the drivers door which needs attention. Total cost could be £1300. Car value - WITHOUT the faults might be £1500 to £1800.
Time to change?
One point - the EGR issue needs fixed to drive safely.
