    Hello guys.
    I have this 2010 780 with D13 engine. I have a bunch of issues with lack of power and a lot of soot in the oil.
    I replaced a bunch of stuf, including the EGR valve and EGR differential pressure sensor and made no difference.
    I tried to clean the holes in the venturi tube, that are used by the DP sensor to measure the difference in presaure, but i couldn't find the direction the holes go from the sensor port to the flow tube.
    I understand are some narrow channels that get clogged with soot.
    This is the updated plastic venturi tube.
    How do you guys clean those?

    Any tips?

    Thank you very much.

    I would use carb/choke cleaner and blow it in the sensor holes then use compressed air to blow everything out! Btw what was the problem with your truck? Because I’m having the same issue!?
