How do i remove the egr cooler
 

I have all the parts out to get the egr cooler out but the tube is hung up under the intake that is on the top of the cooler does anyone now if you have to take the intake off or not to get it all the way out.

every install pic i have ever seen has the intake off

You can do it without taking the intake off, but it's kinda difficult, and takes a lot of practice.

I'd just pull the intake, it would make life easier on yourself.

Change the oil cooler while you are in there.
