im having problems with my egr valve and wondered if anyone could help. Its a 104bhp 05 plate and ive changed the turbo for a 150bhp golf gt tdi one and got rid of the cat, almost a straight forward swap apart from the exhaust downpipe flange and the EGR pipe fixing point.
As the old egr pipe from the turbo to the egr valve didnt fit i thought id blank the egr pipe off (both sides)
now after road testing it, it keeps going into limp mode and the engine management comes on intermittently.
have i missed something?
do i need to plug the vacuum pipe?
do i need to get the egr deleted off the ecu?
any help would be most appreciated

Re: EGR problems
Think you'll need to get the EGR and cat mapped out to avoid any lights.

Re: EGR problems
Yeh deffo get the EGR Mapped out, but you won't get any warning lights or problems with a de cat however i would ensure the de cat is taken into account with the mapping just to be safe
