...breaking down and ally oxide is entering the engine. Regardless, I would recommend having the EGR blanked off at both ends and use piggy back Tafmet solution as DXX proposes. Other route is mapping out, but needs a specialist which is the route I took. Tafmet is DIY and overall cheaper to do...

...egr cooler were stripped. Luckily, the thread goes deeper than the screw so made up a longer one with a nut and washer for tightening. Test drive for 45miles was fine; the van even feels more responsive now. Can't say as its exactly discreet though as you can't hide all the cabling to the Tafmet.

...plan to do 1000miles or so and then test. Either way I am convinced that the cooler will fail (my van has done 55K) so I plan to install the Tafmet regardless. Hopefully there's no issue but if there is, I hope i caught it early enough. Now to save up for the DSG gearbox removal to get the...

...(seems the van only needed to do 1 regen today as I covered 130miles on motorways and dual carriageways). My plan so far is to fit the Tafmet which hopefully arrives tomorrow, keep driving until 1000miles have passed since the oil change this week and then send off the oil for analysis. If...

I would fit a tafmet and blanks, then oil change. It takes away the issue for very little cost.

My advice is once you see oil consumption the wear has already started so fit a Tafmet kit now. No need to map anything. As for re-calibrating a Euro 5 to a Euro 6, not unless you know a bent individual at DVLA I guess. Your Euro 5 does output the same CO2 as a Euro 6, however Euro 6 is about...

...my concern is 1. with 130k miles is it too late maybe, and 2. is 'turning it off enough, or should I replace for a new unit and then use a Tafmet unit and blank off the unit? I did a compression test with a cheaper Sealey compression tester which I had to modify to fit so less than ideal...
