is it possible to delete the egr on my car as its the pre-facelift model with the vacuum operated egr?
most shunt threads ive looked at involve soldering a resister but i dont think i can do it on mine.
sorry for being thick, im good at bolting things on and takings things off but when it...
hello, car keeps going into limp mode and gettin on my **** now, read the codes and the EGR keeps coming up, any know the way to blank it off? thought i done i when i mapped the chips but i must have not.
Hi,
I was coming back from work this evening and realised e w203 2.7CDI was in limp home mode, I only realised as it didn't rev over 3000rpm, power and smoothness were normal.
So at this point I was thinking EGR or MAF. I got home and used my generic code reader and there were no codes...
Been getting a fair amount of smoke from my C270 CDI when accelerating hard and I've noticed that the boot & bumper is almost permanently covered in fine black soot so I thought I would inspect and clean my EGR valve as a starting point - particulalrly as its never been done and the car has done...
Had the EGR valve replaced today, picked car up and all was well, felt smoother and pick up from low revs much better. 3 miles away from garage gentle acceleration from lights and straight back into limp mode!!!!! Took it straight back and it now showing "Inlet port shut off motor fault. Now I...
Have just stripped down the valve and boost pipe. Whilst cleaning the egr housing I noticed there is a valve inside that looks like its supposed to open to let exhaust gases in.
However I couldn't physically open it. Is it goosed or is it supposed to be that way and the pressure of the exhaust...
My mates had his engine management light come on in his 2004 54 c220 cdi auto.
My basic OBD Code reader has brought up the following:
P0402 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Excessive Detected
P0404 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Circuit Range/Performance
P0408 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Sensor...
Hi
Car is running ok but when I accelerate a cloud of smoke emits from the exhaust and the response is not what it once was.
My MPG is higher than before and read a couple of posts so could this be the EGR valve? if so is it needed (can it be removed) or how do I go about cleaning it?
over the last few days of my christmas break i want to clean up my w210, just wanted abit of advice :)
im going to try a maf/egr delete when i research how to do it, going to try the boost raising resister i read about in the morning,
but does anyone know how to make my yellow lights clear...
hi, ive been looking all day for the answers to this but dont totally understand it, is it right that the engine would run better with out the maf and egr? and i think the egr is controlled by the maf? if the maf is removed and a resister put in the wires, would this stop the egr being used...
I want to remove and clean the EGR on my 2001 e220cdi. Can anyone tell me what size the 3 torx bolts are?
Suggestions of where to buy the appropriate spanner/socket along with any tips on removing said EGR much appreciated.
Hi all,
I need to clean my EGR. Anyone has some tips on this? Is it a job I will be able to do myself, or is it better to ask the MB-garage to do this?
Cheers,

Hi guys,
Anyone have experience physically removing it to clean ?
I have tried to remove it by unscrewing the bolts but the EGR valve refuse to come out from the cooler. Try pulling it out but seems to be stuck probably by the soot.
Ideas ?
I have a blown bellow's piece on my Exhaust Gas Recirculation diaphrapm, due to a failed bolt. It is currently holding on by the remaining bolt. I believe it can be blanked off with little difference to engine performance, more for improved emissions.
I would however like to replace it if...
Since I am having a good look at the car, I may as well sort out the EGR.
I've read up a bit, and it looks like EGR can cause smoky exhaust problem. Mine looks disgusting at first sight and exhaust is sooty. There is a trace of oil in the air intake pipe.
Some people have blocked their...
hi
My E300D failed the MOT emmisions smoke test. it was running 100% WVO at the time.
so, i've put it 50/50 WVO and Diesel now, given it an italian tune up.
What i could also do, is re-connect my disconnected EGR pipe. But if its been disconnected for about 40,000 (which it has)...
Morning all, as per the very useful post in this section I cleaned my EGR valve yesterday and was surprised at the amount of soot & clag in it. Trying it since I have not had the increase in performance that others have reported but then realised that I also no longer hear the turbo whine that I...
