check the fan fuse .. test the fan motor .. test/replace the engine temperature sensor as this controls cooling fan operation

hello
i have a 2003 kangoo there is a pressure build up
1)maybe your radiator is clogged
2)remove the thermostat and place it in hot boiling water see if it openes
3) whitout the theremostat check if the radiator is hot at diferent places mostly it should be at top
4) change the pipies they are old and dry and should not burst at any cost
good luck
by the way do u know where is the egr sensor
do u have the manual
