I have purchased a spray that cleans the air intake manifold on my 2016 Nissan Xtrail 1.6 diesel, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. To remove it, the directions state to disconnect the flexible line that connects the turbo charger/intercooler to the air intake manifold nut, but I'm not sure where that hose is.

Thank you ahead of time

Try searching for R9M EGR cleaning on YouTube.

It was later, but I was able to accomplish it because you asked.

Feel better now that it's out of the way. It is easier to get a new intake manifold and egr valve for high-milers because it is so clogged and corroded.

Thankfully, it wasn't too bad. Now I only need to fix the light plugs, although I'm not really keen on doing that for fear of snapping them unexpectedly.
