Hey n10b, it’s been doing it since before I changed the EGR plus new reinforced pipe. I could smell it in the cab sometimes.
Now no more smell and CO meter shows reading of zero.
I don’t have heated windscreen.
It doesn’t handle badly but these stock shocks aren’t factory fresh with 145,000km...
Ask if your van has the updated EGRpipes fitted, they were modified increase the exhaust gas flow.
Plus check for split EGRpipes at the flexible bellows, you’ll see photos here EGR flexi-pipe: Exhaust Fumes In Cab, Hissing From Engine Bay.
Plus as I asked on post #2. Can you smell exhaust...
...yesterday 150bhp with 90k. Whooshing and loss of power, then coil light flashing and whooshing stopped but limp home. Garage found the front EGRpipe flange braze had failed. Did some stainless steel weld on it and it seems as good as new, no pressure loss and no further faults. Very helpful...
My van’s been in for investigation today about the ongoing coolant loss. A different garage has stuck a camera in the new EGR and found it contains water. There is apparently a service bulletin that requires some new modified bits when fitting an EGR or it risks over heating the EGR and...
Hi folks
Thought I'd replace the front Flexi pipe as it was looking a bit sooty and I've got low flow messages.
To my surprise, the end fitted to what I think is the EGR cooler, has a blanking plate fitted across it.
Behind it is a big fat pile of exhaust sludge. I'm guessing this engine...
So, yesterday I got bored so I whipped off the front EGRpipe at the EGR cooler end, with that off I could clearly see the soot was moist, not the dried / caked on soot I saw when I changed the pipe 2 years ago. I used my bore scope and sent it down into the cooler and what should I find...
I’d take a Revo over a Piddle remap all day long, tried and tested on 100’s of 204’s.
The injectors are the last of your worries on a 204, egr valve, egr cooler, dpf, crank seal, flexi-pipe will all self-destruct before the injectors ;)
...if it was a CFCA with a Tafmet kit, it isn’t.
As far as I’m aware there is no way to disable the EGR without a software modification and possibly some EGRpipe blanking plates as the valve will almost certainly be leaking.
You will probably need to track down the previous owner to get the...
So, I have had the EGR assembly removed completely, blanked off and a coolant bypass pipe fitted due to a coolant leak suspected from the EGR cooler.
However, despite the tuners efforts I'm assuming a temperature sensor is still being read and needs to be "disabled" perhaps.
Would any of you...
As per my Facebook response……only the genuine one. Worth getting a set of bolts and gaskets at the same time.
I have posted the part numbers somewhere in the big egrpipe thread on this forum.
Had my MOT and inspector said intercooler had oil on it and was hissing from around there. I replaced it yesterday and it felt twice as fast and not down on power. Only problem is that EML came back on with P0106.

It's possibly a split EGRpipe.

Hi all, got issues with the removal of the EGR valve on a 2017 T6 T28.
Has anyone got a downloadable workshop manual showing the removal and refitting process for the valve that they would be willing to post on here?
Bit of a long shot I appreciate but am really up against it, mechanic is having...
Can't really tell from my phone's sound quality.
But common noise causes can be, belt tensioner pulley?. High pitch squeal.
Or DMF?, it rattles.
Or Leaking EGRpipe? can cause air leak hiss... But is constant and comes with a exhaust smell.
Keep us posted....
Hi.
Are to you sure it's not a boost leak somewhere or maybe the EGRpipe which is known to split? The symptoms are whistling but it can also create a diesel exhaust smell in the cabin as the gases are released in the engine bay. Just a thought.
I only have the 140 so a different turbo and...
