Thats ten times worse than mine and I thought mine was bad, I wonder whats in your intercooler- bet you could pour the oil out of it.

EGR = Exhaust gas recirculation
Actually I took the rubber hose from the IC to plenum mixer pipe off and that was surprisingly clean. Makes sense I suppose as the air is flowing into the top of engine away from the IC.

These EGR valve things are a monumental waste of everyone's time really.

Photos make it look bad, and it was I suppose. Strangely the car runs as smooth as you like and reports 42mpg average which is bloody good for my style of driving....auto too.
