To "FIX" the check engine light. Get a small piece of electrical tape and cover the light on the dash.

Well that environment argument is pure bullshit. Many cars, like mine, a Hyundai iload are known to turbo faliure due to carbon buildup and shit that restrics the oil pickup, and later on the engine breathes in turbo parts and swarf from axle and other things... Which then will result in the need to scrap that car, which takes lots of energy, and then I have to buy a new car which was build by an energy consuming process with lots of emissions. And also that makes the car company to have the need to produce more cars and bla bla bla..... So if the engine held up for longer, and people didn't have to buy new ones due to engine failures, then that will make all the emission bullshit to be just bullshit... EGR valve is just a device to ruin engines short after warranty expires, and then companys can produce more cars. And the politician who most often haven't even held a wrench in their whole lives just live in that lie that they thought that they have made an environmental beneficial stand... So in the end those naive sons of bitches called politicians think that they contributed, and the greedy manufacturers of cars are rubbing their hands and counting profits.... This world really needs some glasses to see the bigger picture, and no EGR, because even if it sounds like a good idea, it's really just another part that needs to be replaced and then the money you earned just changed pockets to the car manufacturers pocket....

I have Ford Focus 2007 model running on petrol and check engine lights have been a problem for a while now and it says EGR system flow fault, it might take more time and cost to order a new EGR and replace so I am planning on deleting or blocking the EGR but still unsure about it. do you recommend of using blocker plate for the solution?

What’s the environment done for me the dog

Im not sure but I believe some cars are gonna throw a tantrum when doing this if you dont get it remapped for an EGR-delete. Some vehicles may go into safe-mode and such and light up the check-engine light, correct me if im wrong

I did this on my 2006 Mazda BT 50, but I had to revert back because the engine ran too cool. It was lucky to reach 60°.

Wooow, EGR system is in the top of engine! In Opel its behind so you need to remove battery, coolant basket, fuel filter holder, several fires and you need to have extra shot torx-keys

Hi,I have Laguna 1.9DCi 74kw from 2003...Where I should put the blanking metal plate? Instead of upper part of EGR(the electronic-sensor) and leave the rest of mechanic part of EGR-valve in closed position?

Another gift from the EPA....A P.O.S. to rob horsepower and ruin your engine!!!

I bought a 2009 mondeo and it has the old 1.8 tdci engine in it. Good engine and I already have the blanking plate ordered for the egr. The engine has no dpf so all good there.

I deleted the entire egr and put a plug in the port. Yes, the check engine comes on. I could careless as it is explainable if one was selling their vehicle.

I know it's an old thread and of course great video, did anyone reading this have any overheating problems after blanking/ deleting the EGR valve? Curious...

If u force your engine the pipe will snap...

Hi So I have coition . What the used of EGR ?

Just so you know, removing the cooler pipes from the EGR cooler will cause the pipes inside the cooler to crack from the hot exhaust gases.

Electronic gas regulator

Hi...what car what you on when showing this video?

I fitted a blanking plate to an egr on an old car. Got an engine warning light. Cheap code reader said egr flow error. Ignored the error until MOT time. Then I removed the blanking plate the day before, cleared the code, and refitted the plate after it passed the MOT 😉

if you put a 4 - 5mm hole in blanking plate, EGR sencor will detect the slight amount of gas passing through..... not 100% blocked off but shite loads better. have also been told a performance or economy chip turns light off

Is it true, if I blank my egr without tricking the ECU it will chuck the car I to limp mode? And would putting a small hole in the blanking plate stop limp mode and not chuck out engine management lights?

first thing I remove when I buy a car. heated gas, get real.

I see you have a blanking plate without a 6/7 mm hole ..? On other vids they say there should be that...? 🇧🇻

Only found this video as i was looking at the MOT history of a Land Rover I was thinking of buying to keep me for a few months as im waiting on new car being delivered. MOT fail :Exhaust gas recirculation valve obviously modified blanking plates been fitted.

Can you not just take out the egr valve plug ( harness) ?? Instead of doing all this

Pull vac pipe off egr stick a ball bearing in pipe and stick it back on , job done .

Can someone help me on ford explorer 2008 EGR VALVE, HOW TO REMOVE AN CLEAN AN TEST

Is the procedure the same for a 1999 Ranger? (Normally Aspirated)

would it work on a 2010 mazda bt50 or would i get the Engine light come on

Fizzy pops and quids

Is it ok to do for a gasoline (regular) engine? I have a pick up truck with the vortec 8.1L. Thanks!

I totally agree

Do you have a link for the blanking plate??? I wanna buy one

Link for Ford courier plate?

Wouldn’t just removing the vacuum pipe amount to the same thing as blanking off the EGR as the valve within would remain shut?

Can I just Block my EGR without ECU remap ?

It's always handy, when your working on the exact same vehicle. Correct me if I'm wrong, Ford Ranger Mk2?

I can approve!

This will overheat combustion chamber. Causing engine misfire.coz egr indirectly regulate/cool combustion chamber. Inshort egr is not just about environment.its About engine head.

My engine, my engine my engine.

fitting one of these wont disable the error codes surely

Does blanking mean it will fail the emissions on mot?

can someone please answer my question. Is it possible to stop the EGR by just removing the vacuum line that is attached to the EGR valve? or would this have any potential damage in the long run?

omg buy a mic

I have just done this to my focus 1.8tdci 2006. At first i could tell it was faster and smoother but now my engine now seems to be quite loud and a bit slow. I cant find anyone else having this problem anywhere and it seems everyone has a positive result. Any chance I have fitted it wrong?
