This is a completely different EGR valve to that which is on a 2.2. You cannot put a complete blanking plate on a 2.2 because the engine management light will come on. you have to use a blanking plate with a 8-10mm hole for this to work.
@@billwhitmore3852 Buy an OBD reader for £20 to remove the EML when it comes on. That’s what I’ve done and it goes through an MOT test. No other issues.
I did this and the difference was amazing... Smooth drive and no smoking exhaust. Passed MOT no problem. Delete EGR software from the main computer to get rid of engine manager light as the computer still thinks EGR is faulty as it's not there now.
@@rhysmcgreal8786 needs a remap. I found it cheaper and a better fix to fit a cheap, working EGR and just blanked off the exhaust feed pipe. EML has stayed off ever since and EGR looks like it hasn't been tampered with. This kit didn't last 3 months on my car.
@ferkemall A resistor ? where can we find that ? I have this problem, my plate block totally the egr, i dont want to let a hole and circulating gaz ... so after some kilometers, this damn ODB code come :( Please provide us a link with the resistor to simply plug and buy.

Hi. I my car is loosing coolant via the EGR unit so I need to do a valve delete. But I also need to bypass the coolant system from the EGR unit itself. Is there any reason I can't do this? (Heat issues/ turbo cooling etc) Thanks in advance
I suppose you could clean it up and sell it, and maybe even make a profit. Or maybe for a cleaner look to the engine. Or maybe to prevent carbon chunks from going into the engine. Also, it might make the car lighter, but granted not by much! But if you were doing this for a living, and replacing 10-20 of them a week, removing them and selling them would be a nice profit! Some cars require the EGR to remain on the car though, still opening and closing, to prevent an error. So in that case you might want to remove and clean it, and then put it back on, and just block it off. In my old Peugeot this was the case, the amount of airflow to the engine through the EGR was part of the torque calculation by the computer for the traction control, for how much power to send to each wheel. I think it needed to know the exact air/fuel ratio. So the computer had to know how far the EGR valve was opened, and it would test the valve every time the car started up, and give an engine fault if it wasn't there, which disabled ABS and ESP, and was enough to fail an MOT or NCT. Took me a while to track an ABS fault to the EGR valve! Peugeot dealer wanted to replace my ABS module for €1,200.. I'm sure Peugeot could probably have just put an airflow sensor in front of the EGR valve, or maybe they couldn't because of temperatures or carbon deposits or something. Who knows..
Try driving the same car with and without, the difference was pretty astounding on mine. No smoke, far less turbo lag, smoother running and acceleration. I kept my EGR in place and just blanked it though, the bypass pipe is useless Chinese "steel" and didn't last a few months.
If it's euro 4 yeah but drill a 10mm hole in the centre of the blanking plate and it will prevent this from hsppening. If it's euro 3 you'll have no problems

I just put a blanking plate at top on egr valve that's it left the old pipe and valve in
Has the benefit of looking original too.
Any problems since I'm just about to do mine

Hi there, thank you for the fantastic feedback! - Georgina, X8R Ltd
How do you remove it off the computer and is that a permanent EML fox?

they dont know :D
its to easy and short for a video.

The weld on the pipe broke clean off on mine after ~2 months. Useless.
Hi will I be able to fit this to my X type 2.0d 2009. I'm unsure if mine has an electronic EGR?

Hi there,
As long as you aren't bypassing any components (other than the EGR valve) then this should cause no problems.
Dear sir i can not WATCH video it just keeps spinning ROUND and round really wanted to watch it ,!!!
why would you need/want to remove it anyways???

Or just slot a blanking plate in with no hole. No engine light and runs like a dream
This, leave the EGR in place, the replacement pipe is garbage.
a mechanic told me that the EGR has to be removed from the ECU even if you block it other wise it would go into limp mode, is this true at all?
