How To Tell If Your EGR Is Faulty - Common EGR Symptoms & Problems.

[@eden4949]

I've had my EGR disabled when getting my remap (2015 Golf 7 GTD), passed TÜV and AU (German emissions) without issues. Plus fuel consumption as well as engine response time improved. Even though these newer VW engines use 'pre-cleaned' (two filter DPF system) I'd still disable that every time

I have a suzuki alto 1.1 2004 and got quoted £900 for a new EGR and labour. This was 3 months ago and I’ve still been driving it every day since. i only paid £700 for it just before lockdown. It was misfiring quite bad when I was using e10 fuel, so I switched to e5 and seems to run better, and just likes to have a little splutter when idling.

Love your channel. Would have liked a link in the video to press to get onto the other video you recommended in problems in removing your EGR

As an owner of several VW TDi cars, the EGR valve is a ticking time bomb, as they coke up with frightening regularity - some as early as 70,000 km, needing replacements which are quite costly.

Can i delete/blank the EGR on VW 1.6 TDI (CAYC) without deleting the DPF?

[@TheMindukas]

Can be egr problem if can lose power on low rpms? After i hit 2000 rpms its pull normal, but before its very slow. Giving black smoke. I have replaced so far maf sensor, fuel filter, turbo salenoid its still run same. Two mechanics have looked they dont know what it is. Computer was complaining about air problems. Car not shaking or anythinks starts normal, but black soth comimg out from exaust.

I have deleted my EGR from the ECU bacuse it was casing problem, but it stil causing EPC and check engine light, only when driving and sometimes it stalls at idle. Could you please help me ?

[@torquecars]

Hi buddy, which engine do you have? Did you do a physical delete/block/removal as well or just a software delete? Just something to note here, unplugging the EGR from the ECU often causes errors and many "mechanics" think this is the way to delete an EGR but it often causes more problems than it solves. Are you getting any other error codes? Please note that although I can make suggestions here I really cannot solve problems remotely or offer solid solutions, every car is different and there are often little quirks that need to be assessed each time.

I got the egr error code and my car is shaking like crazy when its idle but i took put the egr valve amd cleaned it (it already looked pretty clean) but that didn't help. Any suggestions. I have a 2010 belta/yaris.
