Excellent shout there, always learning.

It’s just mapped out and left in place. The blanking plates stop any exhaust gases leaking past the egr valve. The coolant still passes through. For MOT purposes it looks factory. Mine has passed a couple of MOTs since we put it to sleep.

How do you identify a crack in the EGR pipe? Can you hear it, smell it, see it?

Hi I've got a VW t6 102 and have a couple of issues. I recently had my egr replaced as it was blocked. since this work was carried out I have an engine fault for egr low flow. I've also noticed when I rev my engine and let the revs die off it makes a noise around the airfilter housing like a...

Mmmmm, thank you DXX. Will find out when I look under the bonnet and it doesn't make sense, lol...

I raised the health and safety issue direct with VW (0800 333666) and got nowhere with making the point that VW have clearly recognized the egr design fault because the replacement pipe is far sturdier. It seems that breathing in carbon monoxide etc because of the faulty original pipe is not...

The EGR valve is still fitted but I've removed and blanked the pipe before it, the one with the corrugated part at the back of the engine that normally cracks. The pipe itself was fairly clogged (but not cracked) and so was the valve from what I could see. The hissing was there before and after...

Had this fault come up last month and checked out by AA vw specialist, it's ran ok for 850miles and now back up.... obviously have searched and understand it's insufficient flow but took a pic of the values on his test and wondered if the readings give any indication that a flush may help..? Or...

Done a video on replacing the front EGR pipe + an overview of the full system

I found something……. When I bought the new o ring for turbo to charge air pipe, I also bought a new gasket for egr outlet into inlet manifold….. I took the pipe off, and noticed a black cob of muck, cleaned it back and found a brased repair to a hole. Looks like it’s been leak too as this pic...

Hi I had a split egr rear pipe and my T6 was out of warranty I spoke directly to VW Head Office to explain the situation and to bring it to there attention that it was a safety issue as fumes where entering the Cab and I was really happy that they agreed to do it for free under warranty.

Yes mate, I was trying my luck with it tbh, seen them for around £70 online.

While oil leakes are not covered. Which I think is a bit bad really. They all in extended warranty is still worth considering. We've had dual mass flyer wheel, EGR cooler, EGR pipe, all replaced under warranty. Over £2k worth of work.

Hi. Last time I tried to buy parts for my local TPS dealer (Cheadle Stockport) was sent away as I’m not “trade” - although I’m a limited company. Can anyone recommend a better branch who wants my money? I need a EGR flexi pipe at some point soon Thanks

I am looking at the rear egr valve (as best I can) It looks like it it is the new style pipe (fatter with the rough rather than smooth exterior). Whereas the front pipe looks pretty shiny (as does the egr valve) the back pipe is dark brown/black colour. I think I am getting fumes in the cab...

Will leaking cause a problem?

Mine was solved by the mechanic looking under the bonnet and finding a crack in the EGR pipe

There could be a leaking egr pipe which is more noticeable when on regeneration. Advice is to allow the regeneration to complete rather than repeatedly interrupting the process.

Selling a rear EGR pipe and gaskets / bolts for a euro 6 engine. New revised design. Selling on behalf of someone who is no longer a T6 owner, and isn't on the forum. Looking for £80 posted, a quick google shows these have gone up quite a bit, so good excuse for a bargain. 04L 131 521BH...

Can I guess what scent the candle is? Broken EGR pipe? :)
