    As you guys all know the Lexus Ct200 is a close cousin of the 3rd gen Prius.

    I dont have a Prius but do own a CT.

    After searching a lot, i couldnt find a place with more information than here for all these repairs.
    Taking a little time out to let future readers know that they can follow all the instructions on this forum for 3rd gen Prius EGR/PCV/OCC/Intake cleaning.

    Besides some minor changes for the intake plumbing, everything is the same as the prius.
    Down to the parts needed. I followed nuts and bolts OCC install video, egr cleaing video, egr cooler video, throttle body cleaning video and this thread for lots of info on parts needed. if you doing OCC also, dont buy the u shaped PCV hose,its going to be deleted, so no use.

    Good advice and write up(y).

    I’ve done the egr circuit cleanses at one of the Bay Area meetups and the only thing I found was that the engine bay was just a bit tighter in the back around the egr cooler:cool:.

    But nothing brute force and ignorance couldn’t fix;).
