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 fumesin the cab...
Hello, I have had exhaust fumes coming into the cab (t6) for some time . I took it to the garage today and they have found the fumes to be coming from the exhaust manifold . They have advised me that to fix this , they will need to replace the turbo as the turbo and exhaust manifold comes as 1...
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.
Recently the Caravelle 150PS 2015 T6 engine management light came on. Luckily my brother has a bodyshop and I put the van on his Autel machine.
Here I presume lies the problem
I also get exhaust fumesin the cab and my local garage has said there is a split in the concertina pipe which is...
Has anyone had this issue with CFCA engine,had new engine ,turbo and DPF fitted 4000 miles ago ,all been running well ,then today the dreaded fumesin the cab started ,got back it was like the engine was on fire coming out of the front grill .Can a split in the EGR pipe cause this ?
Maybe it has been ‘split’ because it’s blocked? Putting a gash in it would relieve the back pressure. I can’t imaging it splitting by itself, the engine would stop running before the pressure got high enough to split the casing.
I’m surprised you can smell exhaust fumesin the cab I would have...
I’m very surprised and doubtful that an EGR cooler could have restricted flow at just 20K miles. There is no EGR light, the warning light that’s being referred to covers many potential faults.
There is no way that the new EGR could have restricted flow after 7K miles or the several months period...
Thanks for all the advice, I've discovered the DPF is infact split, which explains the exhaust fumes smell in the cab. Guess that's why it's deleted on the map, previous owner probably considered it cheaper to do that then replace the DPF itself. Still would have been nice of him to tell me. Its...
Getting a diesel smell in the cab (2017, 56k, full camper conversion). Seems most noticeble the day after we've done a long run. Having done some reading here I assumed it was leaking rear EGR pipe. Had VW assist out and the guy's had the pipe off but can't spot a leak anywhere.
To me it does...
I've had a good dig through this thread, but nothing obvious.
My stink is back with a vengeance. As people will know, I started this thread after finding the original problem and replacing several pipes at 30k intervals, to then finally replaced the older style pipe with the newer modified...
