I was really sad when my egr just happened to fall off and couldn't believe when it fell off it knocked the dpf too 😂
bruh 😂😂😂😂😂
I just got a 2007 330d if I delete the egr and dpf will it still go through mot?
@@mattperry7821officially no …. If you delete the egr on the map leave it in place then if gut the dpf and they can’t see how you did it then yeah it will pass
When I did a egr delete and a step 2 remap on my 2006 Audi A6 D3 4.2 TDI, it got lower emissions... it run a little hotter (positive) and the fuel milage got alot better... And it stopped dumping so down the intake... And that car passed MOT no problem at all! It had even cleaner exhaust after the tune and egr delete..
get hood breather haha
I find after the EGR delete releases alot of white smoke when your parked at the traffic lights and has a strong smell when driving no issues actually has more power and fuel economy
There is pros and cons in everything you do, with past experience blanking it did make my cars ran 100 times better and I was getting a lot more mpg!
what do you mean by blanking it?
@@MrPrime-mt8dd Instead of removing the whole thing, you just find a way to block it closed
Most people just plug the vacuum line that controls the EGR so it can't open anymore
It's almost free and very easy but illegal af if you live in Europe
I know over 100 people that had it done properly with a remap and not one was caught yet as they are tiny little minority considering that the wast majority of people have no idea and will never touch the car .
I've done it on my ford focus mk2 2.0 tdci as kept failing to regen dpf due to exhaust gases not getting hot enough! Well that's what I was told by a dpf specialist since removing it dpf has not failed to do a regen, car has a remap which put it too around 162bhp with dyno graph and its got 195k on the clock
My mpg has gone up about 3-4 depending on how hard i accelerate, my emissions with egr delete are 0.51 and limit applied was 1.50 is good as it had egr it failed emissions but with it off it was around 0.76.
When replacing an injector my friend had a one if them micro cameras to see how bad carbon was there was a lot but nothing much for 194k also intake system is less oilly and no crude so I say its great! I also do around 525 miles a week with car averages 48mpg so I say go for it!
I’m proud mine is deleted and am reaping the rewards with a better running truck better fuel economy and the longevity of my vehicle ! The laws were meant for the trucking industry and larger vehicles like busses and heavy equipment and had to include the 2 ton and smaller because of legalities !
Disconnected the EGR vacuum hose from on my E92 320d N47 engine and done about 300km. So far no engine lights have popped up. Noticeable gain in power and MPG. Dont forget to seal the vacuum hose using a screw or something.
Blanked the egr on a audi tdi after the emission fix update when the egr failed and the shop said it would cost over 1000 Euros... Without egr the engine is a little noisier but the air intake gets really clean after a few thousand kilometers
Very simply explained
Very clear thanks
I was finking doing it but I was looking for more staff before starting doing changes to the car.
It will by better steak with it
Combustible stuff, nice explanation
Thanks! 🤣
Compressible stuff would be the better term
Deleding the EGR or blocking the EGR Pipe to the intake manifold does allways have a positive effect to the engine. Important to know is that the EGR system on all these enginges is only letting exhaust gasses into the intake manifold when you are driving it at partial load range (city) or when the engine is not fully warmed up. EGR is allways closed under full load (highway).
Diesel engines with DPF System dont like to be run only in partial load range, because no DPF regeneration can be run under this conditions. But only at partial load conditions the EGR is active.
And this is one of the main reasons why so many modern engines break down after only some 100.000km. The costs and emmisions produced because of all the addtional repairs and needed spare parts caused by this ERG "nonsens" outweight the emmision benefits of any EGR system BY FAR.
Would you recommend getting the EGR removed and getting it stage 1 remapped on a 1.6tdi golf? Or will it give too much strain on the engine?
Hello sir, if you delete EGR just with EGR blanket plate, DDE will give a error : "Fault in the exhaust-gas recirculation" and your turbine will we always bypassed (open, no boost pressure).
I will advise you to do a diagnose scan, just to see if any code is active.
Here in the states, not every state has emissions or inspections so some of us can do lots of illegal stuff to our cars.
lucky you lol
Canada too. Pretty sure emissions tests were struck down federally
@@RandomlnternetGuy We can't even use bigger rims dude, unless you pay for it xd.
Yeah like Florida , explains all the rubber by the side of the freeways due to burst tires , absolutely retarded not having inspections
Here in lithuania, you can't run a straight piped Ibiza with a crazy cloud after it, but if you have "friends" and 50€, you can be calm lol
I drive a pd140 leon with a straight pipe, egr blank and stage 1 map. Very little smoke and most mot stations just do a visual test for diesel cars when it comes to emissions so mine passed without issue
i’ve got a PD bew that i just put some home made plates on. took the cooler out and mated the coolant lines. i have a digital multi gage plugged in my car that says boost and temps etc…. should i be worried about temperatures? coolant temps have been good since i did it, and i haven’t seen anything crazy. why is everyone talking about high temps? i’m getting it tuned here in 2 weeks. is there anything i should say to my tuner?
@@jaxon.frandrup How'd it go?
@@alinutzalin6346 it went really well. i told him to erase it from the ecu, along with removing the seatbelt chime. they were very nice and didn’t charge extra for it. it’s been holding up really well and i haven’t seen any heat issues🙌
Do a sleeper disable.. Don't delete or remove anything; just disable it's operation at a key point without it being visibly tampered with. If you go to sell the car or need an inspection, re-enable. Personally, if a person is going to run an engine harder because of an EGR choke, wouldn't nearly the same emissions come out, vs having more low end torque and being a little more conservative?
I put a gasket without a hole between the egr and intake manifold. It's a sleeper install and works like a charm. 04 mustang gt
I had e60 530d egr delete whilst having an off the shelf remap stage 1 and carbon clean deal with a at home call..carbon clean and remap perfect..i blanked off egr (proper coked up with glunge )..The re code turns off the vacuum if im not wrong to the egr BUT in turn on the e60 the engine mounts work via the same vacuum ...you will get vibration at idle and low revs
It is not illegal ro remove the EGR, but maybe commiting an offence to use the vehicle with the EGR removed. Put it this way, many wouldn't be able to tell if someone has deleted the DPF, if done right, same applies to EGR, blanking plate, map out and leave the EGR connected. Removal of the EGR actually reduces the amount of soot and an MOT test for a diesel car measures smoke and soot content. I work in the motor trade and EGR's cause so much problems by the fact that they allow carbon and soot to enter the inlet and all the associated pipe work including the EGR itself.
my engine was running hot on highway
.also I smelt fuel every so often I disconnect the egr valve it runs cooler again.. the egr and egr sensor needs replacing
Hi there
Does it will cause ECU. failure code ?
Will put car in limp mode ?
My 123d is blowing black smoke and loss of power. Diagnostics point out dpf and egr issues. So it's all coming out next week 🤞 it sorts it
I did that to my Audi S4 and it did get lil bit more mpg... Where I live there is no emissions
And I was contemplating about an egr delete on my 2010 Avensis..I just don’t like the idea of walking home if I get stopped..but question..can the DVSa dismantle the egr to see if it has been blanked..
I just took the egr off my car rover 75 diesel to clean it to find its the conversion ! It has been passing mot's but it still blows a cloud of smoke on heavy ecceleration . So what now !?
Hi. Great video and info.
I have a 06 passat 1.9 tdi.
I'm thinking if an egr and cooler delete.
In South Africa they don't worry about the emissions as much.
Would you recommend this delete?
I belive only other con will be that the car will run hotter.
Thanks
Did you delete it ?
Its safer then to put a blank plate in and then the ecu still thinks the egr is their so it can not be found electronically. And if you did get stopped and checked take out a flat bladed screwdriver undo 1 clip and take out the blank, and put the pipe back on done
I had a 1998 2.2 Subaru sohc legacy that didn't come stock with an EGR valve, therefore I honestly don't believe there's "negative effects" to an EGR delete. I deleted my EGR on my previous 04 Subaru outback and I noticed considerably more power (especially on the highway) I'm blocking it off on my 09 Subaru and tuning out the CEL so it's as if it never existed, the horrible build up of exhaust sludge on the inside of my intake manifold is enough motivation on its own..
MOT can't tell a difference if the egr is blocked or not. Unles there is some clearly visible missing parts. Or a trouble code. Some dont even mesure NOx. For the effect on an engine. For four different engines, all petrol no diesels. Havent noticed a difference, nothing have changed. Only the intake manifold may be not as full of soot.
I blanked off both ends of my cooler and got a tune that disabled the EGR valve. Technically it should make the cooler last longer because there's no more exhaust flowing through it, just coolant.
Pls explain how you blanked the cooler... Mine is leaking in the EGR system and would like to do the same once I do an EGR delete remap
@@ikbarbershop if it’s leaking coolant there’s no blanking to be done, replace it or weld it or something.
@1tokeover Thanks my friend
How much is the cost for egr and dpf delete, total cost
So, other than the legal side of it, there is no downside to an EGR delete. About to do it on a Freelander td4, will let you know. We don't have the MOT and Emissions Compliance issues in SA that you have in the UK, so no worries there for me.
I know it's illegal but I've fitted the egr blanking plate as tbh it does create carbon build up in the intake and in the valves and I've also hollowed the dpf but I haven't welded or cut it open to do it but tbh the dpf is a stupid thing when it's regenerateing it's still releasing diesel into the atmosphere
has it been alright going through MOTs with a dpf delete?
@@ozgnpalkbnydn yes as it's been smashed through it hasn't been cut n welded I just make sure it's up to temperature before mot as a diesel is just a smoke test which it hardly chucks out any smoke
JUST DELETE EVERYTHING AND YOU WILL HAVE A BETTER VEHICLE 🚗 💨.
I DID IT TO MY X5 35d. And runs way better than before. Two year and no problems in. TX if its diesel. No problem with the smoke 💨
Can anyone send me link to this egr delete kit please I have the same engine as in the vid
Why cant I just Disconect the Electric Connection from The EGR ?
one thing I don't get is how deleting it increases mpg I get that it has more combustable stuff in there but, wouldn't reusing stuff with a little energy use less fuel?
The engine doesn't have to work as hard because the fuel is more potent.
If we had an egr fitted to our lungs (lgr)
We would be breathing faster walking down the street to get the required amount of oxygen.
With a Bmw Diesel put in the best fuel, add some Liqui Moly Diesel boost and clean, change oil every 6000 miles or less, ( so easy to do it yourself ), with LL04 oil 5W-30, get Carly bluetooth obd 2 and do a simple dpf regen yourself when youbgo for a longer motorway run. You'll never have a problem....
If you bought a used Diesel thats just sat in traffic doing short runs remove egr, use vacuum cleaner hose to suck all the crap, spray with brake cleaner, when dry vacuim again and apply then fully service....these engines will do 300,000+ miles easily if properly looked after.
If you put in crap oil, cheap diesel, don't service regularly and drive around town so dpg cant regen properly you are guaranteed trouble...
Hi how often do you put in liqui moly
@@TheFentonj every 2nd or 3rd tank full. If driving around town and mainly commuting every 2nd tank. I use 10ml per 10L...if you use too much you'll end up damaging the injector nozzles over time so check the dose carefully with the measuring cup built into the lid of the Clean & Boost. You also want to make sure the engine oil gets up to operating temperature this will prevent condensation and water build up in the engine especially in winter...
If l do that l will be a dead man walking get the wife's hover cruddy not good.
If you build a gasket for the part of the EGR system that attaches to the exhaust that has no holes in it so no exhaust gas can pass through to the EGR system the system will not work the computer will think that it's working and if you do get stopped at a checkpoint they will look in all the stuff will be there and they will not know the difference and as far as knowing the difference there is no difference in power or performance because the second you hit the gas pedal and call for power the computer shuts the system down automatically the only time the system is working is when your pedal is at half throttle and you're not using all of the power of the engine anyway the only reason I would delete the EGR system is because when the Val fails and it is allowing exhaust gases to come into the engine at idle it will run extremely bad
I’ve always bypassed this system this is due to the problems and expense I’ve had with them I’ve resantly been pulled and they didn’t notice luckily going by youre video but yh
I can't see the point of feeding exhaust back into my engine where dirt will mix with the oil and wear out parts, mines been blocked for a while going to leave it as is.
How about the ecu causing the engine light to come on?
@@denniero6904 you can disable it if you know how to program them.
@@denniero6904 You can disable the EGR checks in the ECU if you have a programmer. Costs about £150 to do it on my van.
Did you find that blanking it made the car better on mpg and bhp?
@@adamluma8937 yeah should do. more fresh air and less crap is burning however haven't dyno'd it to get figures.
Can it damage the engine? Asking for w204n mercedes
My E46 330D is really low on power getting up to speed, anything under 3000 revs is so so slow! It’s had an EGR delete. I’m thinking off adding it back on.
Any ideas?
@@null643 it was deleted when I got the car. I need to investigate it more to see how it was done. I’m thinking of replacing all of my vacuum hoses hoping that might help. Can’t understand where all of them go and this random sensor that doesn’t seem to do anything. Only had the car week and 1/ half
some chiptuners close the valve permanently in the software.
Does it just have to be there or does it actually have to work? Blank underneath the valve so it's still sat there but not working.
that's an interesting idea!
YOU CAN REMOVE IT IF YOU WISH OR BLANK IT WITH A PLATE BUT REMEMBER TO DO A SOFTWARE DELETE VIA ECU
@@MohVlogz how?
ask a tuner
Basically the idea of the ega is to limit the amount of oxygen introduced into the combustion chamber by adding exhaust gasses. This limits the nitrogen oxide produced to the atmosphere, Remember 74% of the air we breath is nitrogen !
nitrogen isn't nitrogen oxide...
Nitrogen Oxide is produced when you introduce too much oxygen during combustion !
It also lowers combustion temperatures which reduces nitrous oxide formation.
That seems right. Essentially a certain horsepower engine is reduced to a smaller engine by the EGR system. A bigger engine reduced by EGR bottlenecking could essentially be as powerful as your unchoked smaller engine. Why did they make EGR necessary when they could have sold us smaller engines? Seems a ton of material and expense could have been saved, not to mention lengthening the life of an engine without this choking; seems like planned failure and not necessarily smog control.
@@onepercentileyes, very true!
I removed mine and got it mapped and I'm enjoying the 300 bhp for now, just hope that I dont hit a cheak point
hi man,do you save fuel by doing that?
I've just blanked it and left it there 👍🏾👍🏾
Is it better for the engine? Did you have any problems or will egr off cause damage to the engine?
wrong move. consider software Delete via ECU
@@MohVlogz So do YOU recommend that I remove it on my bmw 1 series 2006 gasoline will my fuel consumption then be better? and is it illegal?
@@Data4664 pointless on a petrol cause they're clean engines in comparison to diesels, may aswell keep it.
@@Data4664 it's no point as it's petrol. Just let it be mate, you safe.
I Have Audi a4 2.5 tdi 2003 (Automatic-DSG)
it is more better to do EGR off ?
or
To Clean it and to keep on my Car Please Tell me ?
Just clean the EGR and the intake. Leave it on the car.
Its not illegal as far as your engin is under the emission level!!!!!! Do what ever you want but check your emmision!!!.
Ask helicopters to install exhayst sytstem , because they do so mouch noise by flying above my aeria;)
1:25 No mate, your thinking is back to front. It recirculates to reduce combustion temperatures in order to reduce NOx in the first instance/
Well don't remove it, just blank the damn thing :D
Remove the pipe that opens the valve. Poor man's EGR delete.
@@kevin.afton_ Anywhere I can find more info on how to do this? Preferably with pics
@@Ml_-gq8kv Its very simple, just remove the black rubber tube that goes to your EGR. Just pull it off. But dont forget to plug the end of the rubber tube with a bolt, because its a closed circuit. The hole on the EGR can be left open.
what do you mean?
@@MrPrime-mt8dd There is a tube that goes to the EGR valve, you take that tube off and plug it, thats your EGR delete. Otherwise you and replace the gasket between the EGR and the intake with a piece of steel from a drink can.
Back then yes now no emissions are lean and faul mot like mine as every year 5 years found mine zafira blanked my mot garage let it go this time found the last owner blanked mine had it 5 years garage said burning oil but spark plugs tell me different dont have to top up off going to put it back on emissions more leaner
Not a bmw but i was driving across europe in my volvo, and the egr valve got stuck open in germany, barely managed to get of the bahn, after some head scratching i used a coke can to block the egr pipe, been like that over a year since i cant find the funds for a new egr valve, but since its so discrete no one can see its been done, sooo yeah, its good
Hehe, epic. Good solution. 👍
A little bit late to the party😅. I m curious. How exactly did you do it?
@@DirtyGrandPaz out of sheer desperation haha! Got a a paperweight with no means of getting it moving, i was panicking, but had a litter of some german beer, a few ciggies relaxed my thoughts and started brain storming 😃 firstly blocked off the egr connection with some tape, started the car and it ran perfectly, got a coke can, cut the bottom out and flattened in with a hammer, cut it to the shape of the connection and boom, off i went 😃 the whole process took about 5 hours. Long story short, this can be applied to many things in life, panic will only make things worse, a clear mind will always find a solution.
@@Elmantukas Well, thanks for the quick response mate. German beer and some ciggies can work wonders, for sure. 😄
And regarding Panic you are absolutely right. Stay calm, makeup your mind and there will always be a way. Cheers
@@DirtyGrandPaz Cheers for the comment brotha! Always nice to chat a bit to people!
i thought DVSA can only stop and inspect commercial vehicles (vans/lorries) for spot checks.
In rural areas they sometimes check cars for red diesel but not that often, my mate had his checked.
Can you just clean it and leave it there but remove off ecu. Will that be fine? Just to take it off ecu but just clean and leave it. Would I have any problems?
If it's a single entry port put the blanking plate in and put the valve back over top so it looks like the valve is in situ and working. Have it deleted from the ECU and voila. VOSA or whoever's only do a visual check.
Hi mate what happens if it all gets clogged up? Is it expensive to sort if it happens?
I don't have the answer to this, but your question raises an idea. If the EGR system clogs up it's essentially not recirculating gases and essentially self deleted. However you may need to clean the intake passages carefully not unplugging the EGR passage. haha.. If anyone asks about your EGR, I guess it's plugged.. doh!
Good thing my truck is 26 years old and I dont have to worry about emissions. Off to the garage I go.
fr
Add sea foam inside the engine oil and Diesel tank , then run 200 miles, change the oil, then EGr cleaner on the intake.... your truck will be new
So do YOU recommend that I remove it on my bmw 1 series 2006 gasoline will my fuel consumption then be better? and is it illegal?
Gasoline engines do not have a DPF :)
@@drivelife.channel oh okey so good thnxs
Huh? Isn't he asking about a EGR valve?
@@drivelife.channel EGR off for 320D will make more soot in to DPF? Or not?
Well, what the EGR valve does is that it lowers the oxigen percentage in the combustion, that resorts to a lower burning temperature and that lower burning process produces less NOX and less CO2.
CO2 is fully burnt carbon and is actually really good for the environment. So recirculating the exhaust gases will likely produce more CO2 as the half-burnt carbon (CO) is reburnt and converted to CO2.
So in essence do NOT remove the system. Just fit a blanking plate on the exhaust port or have it mapped to stay shut. Simple.
Both mods that are hard to spot and very easy to reverse.
Yes I did this in the 1980's on cars, and wondered why removing it was wise, if you just blank it, the car can think it's working all day but no gas passes. I just wondered if the ECU tunes the car to "expect a % of gas". ???
Anyone tried this.
@@iangillott Depends on the car, some cars do have sensors for the air that goes through the EGR, if anything out of spec is going on there, it might force you into limped/limited mode. It's always a good idea to adjust for the change, air composition always change from default specs when you stop hot (less dense) air from entering the engine.
@@iangillott That’s why you get the ECU reprogrammed when you blank it off. It’s all part of the mod conversion..
Thinking of having this done at the same time as a remap on my Jaguar V6 3.0 but someone mentioned that deleting the EGR can result in DPF issues further down the line. Any truth to this?
So u do a dpf delete also
What the hell is a "dpf"??
@@AaronGoSoFast - diesel particulate filter
i have egr delite kit on my golf mk4 and in my conty only thing that police is checking is disel fuel so im kinda safe but i have all original parts in my trunk bsc once per year on local car examination they make emission test so i put egr back on engine
We bought a vauxhall astra 2008 last November but it didn't have the egr valve, it's not missed a beat. We are going threw oil though, I've been told that it's not essential to have it on for a working car (forget that you need it for a mot) thoughts?
Hey Ally!
You do technically need it for an MOT but the chances of a mechanic noticing it is gone or even caring that it has gone is very slim! cars generally benefit from having it removed! in terms of your oil consumption it could be a number of things so it is often worth taking a look at the forums to work it out 😁
Thank you driveline ❤️🍻
Making it illegal is stupid all the egr and dpf do is cost more money when it goes wrong , I've seen so many in the workshop because these pack up and cost a load to fix
Gotta love the UK 🤣
@@drivelife.channel the problem is there is a lot of this going on its all over TH-cam so most likely they will be cracking down on this.
Esentially
Is it a good choice to delete it?
Just get a remap that disables the valve so everything looks stock and the fuelling gets adjusted to maintain safe temperatures , as a bonus you will get better running engine , more power and better fuel economy and the best bit no more crap build up in your intake that will half the lifespan of your engine !
If you just block the EGR without remap your temperatures will go up and that’s no good !
Yep... and spark plugs 1 step colder.. maybe mishimoto oil cooler and better aluminium radiator keep everything stable. Exhaust is better to upgrade too.. header and metallic catalytic converter. Those parts working better when exhaust gas is hotter.
I blanket egr on a couple of different cars no over heating problems what so ever maybe 5c which is no problem.
Have readout a car with simply blocked EGRvalve without remap on some conditions. the EGT was not significant hotter ( roundabout 50-70°C. more on highspeed conditions ) sometimes cooler as before with correct working EGR. Significant lower was the engine noise in Town traffic. More Power I haven't felt but the revup between 1500 and 2000 RPM is much quicker and the consumption is dropped from 6.9L/100Km to 6.4L/100 Km (measured on the self route with nearly self conditions)
The other Temps...(.Engine Oil and Coolant ) are the same as before. ( Water between 84 and 89 and oil between 92 and 103°C.)
The OBD based main inspection was without objection
if you disable the egr would the dpf be clogged faster.
Thanks
@@erjonsyla802 no it won't it will clog less' blocking the egr valve will increase combustion temperature which in turn will produces less soot.
Does a egr delete kit add hp and does it help blow more black smoke
It does on diesels
I want the smoke without the limp mode my EGR problems are causing!
My car has been chugging out thick black smoke since the egr and dpf delete and been almost 2 years and all is well !!! No stops or anything
For now!
Nice! Mine doesn’t have a dpf but I want to blank and map out the EGR!
Is it ok to delete the EGR and leave the DPF on the car?
Your DPF will clog up over time
It raises the mpg cos as diesel burns with heat and the hotter the better the burn so more fuel is burned so less need's to be injected
What is the funcion of intercooler in every turbo charged dieses engine? It looks that you are trooling here.
Sweet Jesus!!
@@tomislavprof9734 an intercooler is to cool the air down to reduce turbo lag granted not by much but the main purpose is it help the turbo boost properly by giving it the pressure on the cold side
Correct me if im wrong but a lot of BMWs have egr "hidden" under the engine cover and MOT control is forbiden to mess with your car so they have no way to find out if the EGR is blanked as they can't remove that cover. I guess same goes for any other control.
MOT is allowed to remove covers that use clips etc providing they are not required to unscrew anything and only if there is no risk of breaking the cover
Well then depends on car.. mine has 3 screws :D
@@viktormuller1609 I have also added some screws to my covers 😂
Mine has screws also! They are screwd!! Hahah suckers.. im ordering a blanking kit right now!
EGR removal won’t cause you to fail an MOT mate, same with your DPF being gutted providing that your engine is healthy and not running rich👍🏻
George Austers One problem of EGR removal is quick DPF regen unless you have deleted DPF too. Just removing EGR will screw DPF soon due to increased shoot.
Depends on the garage but many are becoming more strict due to government rules on checking that the DPF etc. are intact and operating correctly, it is no longer just the visual smoke test that diesel cars have to pass.
Will EGR off produce more soot in to the DPF?
@@dukemaximus1639 so with EGR off car will make more regens ?
@@catalinacatalina1474 Yes, car may try more active and passive regen but due to prerequisites (75 degree above engine temp + 10 ltr fuel plus, certain speed limit for a continuous-time), this can be a recipe for disaster unless you drive only on motorways. The outcome can be blocked DPF and failure. Also, more regen will put pressure on the oil lubricity as exhaust gas temp will raise more frequently above 550-degree celsius. My advice would be keep both EGR and DPF on but maintain them with efficient combustion so that shoot production is less and burn off. If you are interested I can make a video on how to best maintain modern Diesel with the DDE system.
Lots of people say it doesnt improve MPGs what are your thoughts about this?
it will save the swirl flaps of the intake in the long term. Replacing that cast you lik 1-3k.
I done the delete and removal of both the EGR and the DPF, they are nothing but problems, can cause issues to your engine along with rough idle if not cleaned
I was thinking of doing the same thing cos my dpf starts going bad, did u not have trouble passing your MOT?
@@pulis2000 nope no trouble, just got to make sure it's done right, you can have it bored out without having to cut it open so the mot guys don't notice.
How do I get a remap once I've deleted the EGR?
Yes have to or else limp mode
Can you leave the EGR in place and just map it out ?
Potentially yes :) provided you could find someone to do it 😂
No you can’t
@@ethancharlton4626 why not
a good tuner can map it so the EGR stays SHUT at all times essentially the same as a blanking plate the gasses hit a wall and can't go back through the engine, Jason at BWChiptune near London or Stan from Ecotune in Glassgow can do it for sure, I'm not sure about other reputable mappers though
YES YOU CAN.
What about a decat pipe is that illegal my car passes mot, s at half the permitted nox levels
Decat should be an automatic fail, as should DPF delete but a lot of garages are still only testing on visual smoke test, however things are supposed to be getting more strict there under government rules so it might not get a pass for much longer depending on which garage you take it to.
EGR blanked on my Volvo D4 passed two MOTs no issues whatsoever
Where did you get it done?
Emissions getting leaner now I won't
Link??
Block it by using blanking plate.
Cheaper and easier method
Don't worry it's only the air we all have to breathe.
This is just all reasons to have the 2A.
Got BMW 320d e92 coupe and it's eating fuel and I think getting egr and Darkside Development to install it will be good, they are so many modified cars near me and most of them just drive upto Doncaster and get DS Development to do custom remaps, big turbos etc, I've spoke to them and they have said best getting egr,dpf, custom remap if I'm wanting more mpg, removes any clogs, and won't have any issues, I did it on old golf I had and never got pulled up to get engine check, didn't ask for RAC the car is fine 😂
You don't have to remove the components, just insert blanking plates. So unless the inspector has a sharp eye , he or she will probably not spot it.
I don't think blank registration plates is going to help here
there is a good reason why these cars only cost 30 quid a year tax!
My 330d 46 cost £325
Which car ?
@@zeez9053 the car in the video obviously 😂
£30 a year? Lmfao yeah right try £325
The car became alive without EGr, the engine cooler and last longer, no more trouble
Adblue system is good invention
Does removing the egr cause the dpf to get clogged??
Yes it can do :)
Well explain. Thanks for the video. I went to buy a used car. The seller told that EGR was blocked. Than I said that might effect the PDF filter regeneration. He then revealed that PDF was also removed. I simply run away. Question, will “removing” EGR effect the DPF? I was told that DPF will get blocked easier?
Yes it is more likely to block :)
I think you mean DPF
@@lewdyson4744 Correct, thanks! I edited and fixed my question ;)
@@SmartProjectsABC 👍🏻
No, DPF will actually be LESS likely to block. EGR is designed to lower combustion temperature and also reduce oxygen levels, however it is difficult to get stoichiometric burn, so with EGR, the exhaust is actually sootier. With full cylinder of fresh air, diesel burns more cleanly hence less smoke,.. and hotter. So your DPF has less soot, is hotter for regen and the turbo should spool up a tiny bit quicker.
Mate I'd give your engine a clean, it's a disgrace. The EGR can stay in place, you just block off the required areas with the EGR still in place. Not going to get spotted on a VOSA inspection as it's all there and present. It can also be done purely by software where the ECU is instructed to keep the EGR valve closed at all times. achieving the same thing. You need to mess with the ECU if you do it mechanically anyway as your EML will be on with a ECU fault.
Yes remap is the key if done properly , most people don’t understand what the EGR does and how it affects the air fuel ratios , if they just block it it will cause issues , remap is a must !
Can be deleted with software. Cost around 300 pounds.
So I've decided ile leave my egr in the boot 😂
Alright lads. I’ve got a bmw 120d e87 177bhp. The actuator has snapped off from the egr valve.
Question is.
If I do a egr delete, Will I need to get a remap done.
Thanks guys
Ps it’s also having a new clutch and flywheel fitted In a few weeks. I was thinking of getting her to stage 1.
Not illegal in florida
Took mine off 2 years ago. Still flew through mot. Fuck it
I Have audi a4 2.5 tdi 2003 (Automatic-DSG)
it is more better to do EGR off ?
or
To Clean it and to keep on my Car Please Tell me ?
EGR Delete will NOT give you any gains at all unless it is blocked up bad. Always software Delete it too as some just do the physical removal.
My mpg went from 38 to 47 taking my egr off!! 2010 jetta tdi
A rover 25 2.0 turbo diesel
will easily pass emissions with no egr valve, and no maf sensor.
With a resistor/paper clip bridging 2 of the maf sensor wire terminals. (i forget which two wires though)
And Running on 20 psi boost.
Totally stock with a cheap k&n copy air filter..
And it was shockingly quick for what it was..
I miss that car.. ☹
That is all i have to say on this matter.. Lol
If anyone wants this hackmod doing to their rover 25 TDI.. let me know.. I invented a better setup. And I will explain it to you in this thread..
But remember this-
You HAVE GOT TO use high efficiency coolant, and you MUST let it warm up fully before you thrash it, and you must be mercifull or you will blow it up in seconds..
And no side-steping the clutch either!!
or that gearbox casing is done for!
If you want the trick, just ask nicely..
You might want a second turbo..
I was to scared to push it. Past 20psi..
But after seeing how far you can push a 1.0l ford fiesta, (190bhp)
I wish I had gone harder!
EGR doesn't just reduce emissions, it actually makes your engine runs cooler, and increases fuel efficiency, which comes with a cost obviously, by using the recirculated 'mixture' it will implicate an less 'cleaner' load into the system, with less potential than a cleaner one, but it will burn cooler, and with less fuel injected to the load. This power loss is sometimes practically unnoticed, this EGR are very effective systems, that help your car being more fuel eficcient and also reduces emissions. Removing it, or keeping it blocked or uncleaned might cause all sorts of problems, being that your engine will run hotter, less fuel efficiency, and more emissions. This delete can be done safely, but the ECU definitely needs to be reprogrammed, and it will have its pros and cons. What I fail to understand is that there's some sort of common sense about EGRs being just for reducing emissions and that recircles unwanted dirt into the motor, if you think this is it, than you know nothing about how these systems really work, and very few knowledge about the mechanical engineering envolved on a combustion motor... inform yourself with valid information and know how before going out saying stuff like this as if you know what you're talking about...
I can understand why people do delete the egr and remap it because it costs to much to replace the EGR. Now if the EGR is blocked up with carbon so doesn’t function then why are the vehicle manufacturers doing something about it to stop the EGR from blocking up in the first place. But yet the DPF gets rid of carbon by doing a reg but yet the rest of the engine gets clogged up so one problem is solved and moved to another area . Tomorrow I am having my EGR deleted and stage 1 remap done on my Vw passat 2013 2.0tdi because my EGR is on its way out and will cost £1100 to replace, my car has just done over 56k so in another 56k I’ll be spending another 56k on top of what ever else blocks up in the engine with carbon
you can map it out and blank it in such a way that you can't tell it's been done. also if your car is still fitted with a DPF you should NOT remove the EGR system, you'll block your DPF.
so you are saying that by producing less soot you will clog your dpf faster ? ^^
@@TheBartxxxl lol
@@serjstol6695 mekenik
Why will it clog the DPF? The DPF should still be allowed to regen.
@@1tokeover it won't clog the dpf ? wtf
How does it make sense to lower emission with something that increases the amount of fuel used and increases the chances of you engine failing. What a joke.
