...I started losing large amounts of coolant and it took quite a few months (and the van behaving poorly) before it was diagnosed as being a faulty EGR. This was fixed just before Christmas and everything seemed ok. Then early this year the engine started making a squeaking/chirping sound.It...

Thanks for the replies. Point taken on the recommendations. My gut feel on the requirement of the DPF regeneration process was that the EGR would be closed to allow increased temperatures for the regen and the ECU would look for a functioning EGR before starting the regen process. I'm...

...it’s now fixed. I ended up taking the van back to the garage I got it from seeing as the problem started the day I bought it. They replaced the EGR with a new vw part including all pipes etc. but the problem remained. They logged a run as they thought it was something to do with an...

Is there any reason why you would change the charge cooler at the same time as EGR cooler or would it be sensible to do the EGR first then see if it’s still losing coolant? Also if the EGR cooler is being replaced is it a good idea to do the EGR valve at the same time? @mmi @Dellmassive @Loz @Pauly

Not sure how the EGR operates temperaturewise in CFCA engine but T6 EU6 (AdBlue) engines close the EGR (no exhaust recirculation) when it's cold. https://www.t6forum.com/threads/t6_measured-winter-specialities.46804/post-620366

I am pretty sure you can’t just blank the EGR off and leave the DPF in place.

I have read AdBlue struggles if EGR is blocked off due to the increase of nox and will eventually fail.

Was told today that the egr isn’t part of the mot I’ve had mine remapped so it doesn’t exist to the van as is the add blue the van runs cleaner pulls through the gears not bad for an 84bhp diesel farter von plodder, had the crappy pipe removed and two blanks put in. The EGR is still there but...

I’m also curious on this. Have a 2019 T28 stage 1 remap so not sure if my EGR is already done and if it’s worth getting ad blu deleted etc.

...another puzzle for you guys :D I own a VW T6 2017 2.0 TDI (150 HP), 300,000 kilometers (186K miles) I have a weird situation. I had both EGR and DPF deleted (none of the hardware removed) on my van and after that sometimes it would not start. No crank. If I would hold the key turned, it...

...read a few threads on T6s with this issue and once a physical leak is ruled out, the two main protagonists seems to be either an issue with the EGR cooler or a cracked cylinder head. We have coolant loss with no visible leaks, oil level appears steady, no smoking from exhaust, no driving...

Thanks for signposting this. Appreciate it. Do you think I’m looking at the EGR pipe in my pictures? My apologies I’m a complete novice so know NOTHING about engines!

...hasn't always been a good experience) however recently there was a terrible, diesel smell coming from the engine which turned out to be a split EGR pipe. I'm sure the fumes were giving me headaches every-time I drove it, so I decided to get it fixed asap. On top of that it was due a Cambelt...

Here is a good write up from another forum about completely removing the old CFCA egr system and replacing it with the 03l 115 389 c part. https://www.4x4community.co.za/forum/showthread.php/319956-VW-T5-1-EGR-Blank-via-ECU I see there are new completely aluminium coolers available now..that...

I have pressure tested and smoke tested all the pipe work from the air box to turbo and turbo to inlet manifold. I’ll run an egr test and video it now.

23DV is a software upgrade for the EGR valve. From what I’ve found it can have a negative effect on fuel consumption

Hi ya. Hope you don't mind me giving you a nudge on this old thread. Got a similar issue. Intermittent P0401. Can do a few 100 miles till it pops on again. Did you replacement EGR solve the issue?

Is there anyway i can tell on vcds if my egr has been mapped out? Im guessing i could do operate egr think its output test on and off?

Been told by VW today that my 2016 T6 needs a new EGR Elbow Pipe - and they want £229 inc Could anybody tell me if this is job for a DIY ? Thanks

Can the EGR be mapped out and the DPF left in operation?
