egr

Hi all New here, not new to Leon issues though. Hoping I can gain some insight to a long term issue I’ve had with my 2012 cr140 FR. I’ll try and keep it to the point. Car judders under boost after cold start. Idle is completely fine. Happens every time after I start driving from cold, and even...

My Seat has been off the road for almost 3 years and it's just had a cylinder head and head gasket repair which had no problems from the engine after it was done. A couple of weeks ago I was driving it and the rev meter was taking maybe a couple of seconds to get to 1500rpm then the turbo...

Hey guys. I have already used the search function and cannot find the answer I am looking for. Sorry if this is quite long. I drive a seat ibiza cupra tdi 2004. When I purchased the car 2 years ago all the work had already been carried out. Hybrid turbo etc. The Engine management light...

Hi all, Not your usual egr question but how exactly do they work? i know they recirculate air which has already been burnt, therefore reducing emissions. and are they water cooled by the cooling system within the diesel enginine if so can anyone explain it preferably with pics? i am not...

Chaps and Chap-esses, Today I noticed my oil level had dropped quite far in the past week so I went on the hunt for the cause! I have found that the area/pipework under the EGR is covered in oil, before I start taking my engine bay to bits is there anything located in that area that may be...

Right people Eventually i had planned to get a EGR delete but since having my DPF Removed and 234 horses the car has been spluttering etc on acceleration and JBS seem to think its a sticky EGR Valve so first of all has anybody removed there EGR on a PD170 and if so where did you get the...

i have bypassed the egr valve with a setup similar to the allard ones you can buy, now its fitted its made a hell of a difference its just the the engine management light is on now and i diont know how to get round it. i fitted the same thing on a 130 brake and cant remeber if i blanked both or...

Hey, just had my car in for some diagnostics. one of the things that they picked up on was that my EGR valve is under constant vacuum... where as it should be under intermittent vacuum. This means very little to me so could someone explain what, why and how? and what the implications could be?

Hey i am just wondering if it is hard to remove the inlet manifold! i am thinking abouteither polishing it or spraying it black! i am going to clean the egr @ the same time - it is just worth getting a removal kit? do i need to get it mapped in or can i do it thru VAGCOM? cheers

My car is going for it's MOT on Friday and I am getting the faults. Any one know how to clear these.

Can someone give information how clean the EGR Valves. Is WD40 used to clean the valves or another substance?

I know this isn't the 'accessories wanted' section but if anyone's recently blanked off their EGR and has a spare exhaust manifold-to-EGR pipe they'd like shot of, could you give me a shout? I put a hole in mine trying to get the stubborn bloomin' nuts off to clean the EGR. Just in case my...

hi does anyone else other than allards make an egr race pipe? or does anyone knoe where i can get for cheaper than £60? thanks

hi have just had warning light come on dash and had it checked an its come up egr valve and garage said needs new one and nearly chocked when they told me the price to replace is there any way of sorting this its 2 litre tdi sport on an 04 thanks

hi, since i've been having trouble with my egr valve.. i'm considering a delete valve instead.. just thought i'd ask if this is good idea.. cheers stu

OK - been doing some searching and experimenting to disable the EGR valve. First try : Just remove the vacuum line and block it. (This brings on the engine fault light) Next idea : Remove the pipe between the EGR and the exhaust manifold and blank both ports but leave the EGR...

Hi folks, Hoping for some advice here....got a 2007 Ibiza Cupra 160 PD and was wondering if there is any benefit in blanking off the EGR as I have done on my T4 and Passat? What, if any, are the pitfalls? Are there any issues with the MOT or the ECU etc etc? Any help always apreciated...

Hi all The egr in my 2.0 tdi dsg needs replacing - need to get it done, but my first MOT date is first thing in the new year - ive read other threads about its only there to prevent shudder on shut down so my questions are 1). will i need the egr replaced for the emissions test (or anything...

Hi Guys, Not having a good time with my car lately seems everythings going all together (new battery 2 weeks ago), I have a MK1 Leon, last weekend the engine light came on, Cars running fine however seems fairly low MPG at the moment. So I've ran VAGCOM and faults are as follows. Engine...

any suggestions for websites to source EGR valve from? recently had engine management light on which showed up as egr valve, we took it off cleaned it and put it back on but since then engine management coming back on, startup is a bit rough for first couple of seconds and can be a bit jerky at...
