Pretty much disable EGR using VAG com - Ibiza cupra PD engine - Now getting 60mpg

[Martin_FR]

Thats one thing i forgot to do was switch it off then on and check it again. Saves ok though with the value in the first post

Does any know if this will work on a 2004 leon fr pd150?

Yes it should work fine, it's still an EDC15P+ ECU.

hmm, this would be fantastic if it can be done on the standard fr tdi 130 asz engine.. and would make the purchase of a descent VAGCOm cable worthwhile. any1 tried it yet on the pd130?

i might have to do this on my leon,sounds worth doing just for the extra mpg.
i take it its not possible on the 90bhp mk4 golf tdi?

 

[Bondiblu]

Wouldn't hold your hopes up on the consumption increase, especially in colder months.

 

[cupra.al]

what are the benefits then?

Debate able topic, but will reduce carbon buildup in the intake manifold, reduce abrasive carbons going through the intake generally.

oh ok thanks,i must admit i think the egr is a bit of a pain with how much it clogs up the egr and inlet manifold if i can prevent that from happening then i will be very happy,as that gunk is horrible to clean out.

Also promotes quicker spool-up of the turbo.

there was some great pictures on here some years back of an inlet manifold all caked up in black s***. thats a big benefit

any1 around the west midlands with a descent VAGCOM happy to do this??

Let me know if you find someone as I'm interested in this and a few other bit on VAGCOM too

 

[John11367]

Going to try this on mine next week when I'm off work..

 

[steve300]

Anyone with VAGCOM in the Leeds/ Yorkshire area?? As I am wanting to try this and afew other bits. There would be plenty of beer money in it for you.

I'm in Worksop, Nottinghamshire through the week and in Sunderland, Tyne & Wear on weekends. I'll be happy to do this for anyone.

I've just done my PD130 (BLT) and noticed it does seem to help spool-up time for the turbo

Bringing this back for some questions, ive got an Alard EGR bypass on my car, so my idle MAF figures are higher than a normal EGR setup.

Does entering the new adaption limit also alter the fuelling of some sort due to the ECU knowing the EGR has been slowed down or in my case removed?

 

[cupra.al]

when i fitted the restriction gasket that i made i went to adjust the figures the way this thread suggests with vagcom and the figures were already pretty close to the way the thread suggests and i seemed un able to alter them and keep them at the new figures it wasnt a big difference in numbers anyway.

so im a little sceptical about adjusting the figures with an egr delete or restrictor gasket,i think it may have been adjustable if i hadnt already fitted the restrictor gasket i made.

My start numbers were a little different with the gasket so I just used the 33768 value, not sure if my car was fully warm at the time though.

I checked them last week after about a month of the change and it was showing 325mg/h with the value saved at 33768 still.

 

[cupra.al]

may have to try it again then after i tried it i just assumed it was one or the other,not sure if it would be a different number on the pd150 though do you?
