Soot Buildup due to Exhaust Gas Re-circulation (EGR) in Turbo Diesel engines is a big problem. Not only does it reduce engine efficiency, but also reduces power and torque output over time. The worst part is because of the gradual degradation, people often don't realize just how much performance they're missing.
In this video we take a look at some of the common methods used to combat the problem, and their various strengths and weaknesses, from blanking plates and dummy load resistors, to custom tuning.

Brit, I just bought a vw sportswagen dti 2015. And just subscribed to your channel. I'm really enjoying all the information and learning so much on tuning on these smaller diesel engines. Being a heavy duty technician for so many year's this vehicle is my retiement gift to enjoy and play with for year's to come! Cheers...
Not much to play with i guess since everything is electronic..
I installed the EGR cable and my economy went through the roof and the power is amazing, my engine is finally awake, for $80 it's brilliant, no faults on the dash, love it, and also get a throttle controller, you won't believe the difference in your car.
Link?
What car was it
How are your EGT'S
Wishful thinking …
Brilliant, thank you from England!
Great video Brett, very informative, thanks for sharing mate.
Good video. This is a common challenge with all turbo diesels.
All good info good luck trying to tune the egr on a vw amarock
Nah, the best way to delete the EGR operation on an Amarok is actually getting into the program and disable it through the ECU.
Video very well explained and generally put togeather. top man.
Thanks TheLsdAddicted The best way to prevent turbo and egr faults is to make sure you rev it and keep it over 2500rpm, this way the turbo engages and runs long enough to spit out almost all deposits......2.2cdi, over 400k miles, still original egr and turbo, still pulls like a monster for a 116hp engine on an almost 2t vehicle
Bisogna tenere la geometria variabile del turbo aperta, seconda e terza marcia in città, 2500 giri al minuto. Purtroppo stanno imponendo il limite di 30km h e secondo me vorrebbero che le persone andassero o in bicicletta o con il bus😂 il cambiamento climatico😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😂😂
Did some work on a BMW 335D and the inlet manifold had so much carbon build up, i think the EGR system is so stupid, im glad my friend did the EGR delete but cleaning the intake manifold took a full day. Its a pain cleaning all the carbon build up
thanks . loved your informative case
thanks as clear as mud.
On my 4jj1 it was a case of a 6k ohm resistor replacing the iat sensor to electronically shutoff the EGR solenoid (doesn't affect air:fuel ratios on my engine as it is determined via the maf and map sensor). Next a blanking plate on the exhaust side of the EGR cooler. Then clamp the coolant hoses on the cooler. Next step is blanking plate on the solenoid side. After that install a catch can or vent to atmosphere. Then finally do a proper intake manifold clean and your car will love you to bits.
I have a RZ4E engine and eliminated the EGR by ECU modification and put a blank plate to the exhaust side of the EGR cooler. Why to put another blank plate and why to clamp off the coolant hoses?
Thank you for that info. Please enlighten us on the Mercedes 518 Sprinter turbo cutting off and gushes off black every now and then.
Really useful information and very well explained. Thank you
I have a MK5 Golf 2.0 GT TDI! I had the engine management light on and displaying emissions fault! I basically stripped off the EGR valve and throttle body and cleaned them both using white spirit! Reassembled everything and engine management light disappeared!!
Very informative video thank you
install the plug, if you dont mind looking at an MIL lamp. In an emissions testing jurisdiction, a check engine light is an automatic fail.
thank you detail video have Isuzu 300 nps model 2010 as probem with turbo with power wastegate control as with engine light on computer side which did to EGR
Can this be done on a 2012 Audi Q3 TDI? Thanks for the informatiopm. Very usefull.
So, a long way round to advertise your Services??? It was informative thought! Gud way of generating interest without too hard a sell! 😎👍
I have a diesel SH forester and to prevent soot build up is to not use it on short trips but if you do then stay in 2nd or third gear around town to make engine work harder and revs stay higher. Diesel engines as we know are designed to travel huge distances like lorries/trucks do. This is what I was told by a seasoned Subaru mechanic.
That’s extreme, just be sure to drive it long enough to get to full operating temp often enough.
You need a new mechanic.
Yes short journeys for any diesel does more harm than good,
Ok foresterboy
Saggio consiglio, in città si usa molto la seconda e terza marcia, motore al giusto regime, pochi problemi. Ma appena possibile, è bello fare lunghe percorrenze, guidare una Subaru rende felici, purtroppo la questione del DPF e del CVT ha intaccato il piacere di guida. In Europa stanno creando limitazioni assurde. E penso anche da voi
Great thanks Brett. Good Vid
This guy seriously knows his way around a vehicle engine. I wish my local Garage was as good.
MrIsak786 In Germany you not only loose any warranty by the manufacturer, you also loose all insurance coverage when you manipulate EGR rates. Not to speak about NOx emissions. California e.g does real live over the street measuring of exhaust gases, e.g with IR-beams and reports it by cameras directly to the DMV, that's why they found the VW cheating - by the way, as brand new cars were always measured as "Polluter"! So take care what you do with your car and what is legal! Simply use Diesel cars normally with maximal 2/3 of full gas, this will first reduce particle production at there fore reduce particulate filter clogging, so you exhaust won't work against the engine, it will also reduce heat and with less heat less NOx build up and therefore will reduce AGR rate and is by the way completely legal, and saves you diesel fuel additionally.
just get a blanking plate but leave the egr valve in place ,then get a basic remap and they will usually delete the prog that powers the warning light and the egr cycle cost me £150 uk pounds plus a couple of pounds for the blanking plate ,you get a slight heat increase but its running like a bird on my landy 110 tdci 2.4
I put an egr blank on my 3.2 4m41 from new . no probs ever .. less than 2 mm build up of soot at 222000 kms when I dismantled to do Tappett adjust and new timing chain guide. I also have been using Penrite hpr 15w 40 engine oil from new changing every 7500 kms instead of 5 w 30 as recommended....Zero chain guide wear noted .i think the key is thicker oil to decrease oil misting and limit or stop the egr.
Whoah!! They need that thin oil to pass through the galleries in the variable Vein turbo. Probably not wise
Mass air flow(for operation related to egr valve)read air flow difference between open and closed egr valve and that is only how ecu monitor egr flow.Air temperature sensor is only for air what is comming in engine..
I have'nt watched it yet, but this could be one of your highest viewed videos yet, if the content is good. This is one of those topics I have been looking forward to hearing your input on. whats your thoughts on the blanking plugs for the egr? worth doing?
Peter, what did you think?
Hi Brett. I have a 2004 Mercedes Sprinter 313cdi. It has had a head gasket & skim due to coolant loss internally. I have noticed that the power & torque has dropped. Do you think l have a egr problem? Thanks
🇬🇧 Most helpful, thank you.

Fact dude these modern engines need to be driven on no faffing around driving them handy is death to them, ppl are too conserved with mpg so they accelerate like granny's and keep the revs low, death to the engine
Or just delete egr?
i have a jeep commander diesel. i have had the dpf cleaned out professionally but now it wont turn over and run., there is pressure and fuel, tried a jump kit, but it starts and just peters out. wont idle. thoughts ?
I bought a SAAB 93 1.9TDI a couple of years ago and in just a few weeks, it went into Limp mode and upon inspection, I saw that there were these weird things hanging out of their holes, and the holes were so badly worn, that they were fairly much rounded off squares and egg shaped instead of circular. I had to replace the inlet manifold and the EGR valve was clogged up to buggery. Im not a diesel mechanic, Im not any kind of mechanic if I am honest and so I got my mate to sort it out. The engine light kept coming back every time we clear it ( still does ) and so, as a suggestion, what we did at first was simply blank it off... then he suggested drilling a small hole, so I put an 8mm hole into the blanking plate, then a 10mm and now its got a 12mm hole. I have, for the last month maybe a bit more, been using the best diesel that I can get locally and that is Shell optimax, and this has done 3 things that have made me decide to never go back to cheaper fuel. 1 - My car is purring like a very contented kitten 2 - It is all of a sudden doing hugely better mileage per gallon 3 - Buying the expensive fual has saved me a small fortune already In fact, while filling the tank was 17 quid more expensive than the Supermarket crud I was using previously, ( Thats a shocker I admit ), my mileage has shot up and so instead of filling the tank every 5 or 6 days, I am already on day 7 and I still have well over half a tank of fuel left. The engine warning light is still there but it is early days, plus, I have the 12mm hole and so I am going to just take the plate off completely and see how it goes from there! - I will reset the warning light, it always comes back after only a mile or two, but lets see if it stays off for any longer... Again, Im not expefcting miracles, but I certainly have had them in this last month or so. Anyway, what I am saying is that to not have your engine fill up with sooty crap, just stop buying cheap supermarket fuel and splash out on good quality fuel... It will be much better in the long run. I used to put Shell in every 4th or 5th tank, just to treat it, but now Im putting nothing but the best in. I know that many say that it makes no real difference and sure, that may well be true in most cases, but it has albsolutely made a massive difference to my car... It now runs smooth, quiet, cleaner, and is cheaper to run. Oh and one thing I do admit to, is that the first time, I did put in a bottle of redex Diesel treatment into the tank.
Question my zafira 1.9 cdti was hissing after blanking at the top , so blanked it at the manifold aswell did a oil change 5w -30 car was running good till today when i heard a big Puff sound lost power and its ticking while driving like a lollipop stick against a moving bike wheel ,I inspected it its blew the manifold blanking plate gasket and black Soot is on my engine ,I'm back to square 1 any help please ?

Nice person tank for you help my brother respect good man for your widio .
I have a VW CFCA T5 Trsnsporter. I’ve just blanked my EGR cooler with a Tafmet system bypass unit. Works a treat makes the engine a lot cooler. Had to do it as with the EGR in the CFCA fail and send shards of the cooling fins into the engine.
rolph bluesky if you blank it off you need to get it coded out of the system, but the Tafmet bypass eliminates the need to get it coded.
The air temperature plug he was talking about can generate fault codes, instead just place a 3.6ohm resistor on the blue/black wire to trick the temp sensor without changing the flow sensor
Hi Brett, nice to watch your videos . I am enjoying your content thoroughly and hope you make more videos featuring the Triton. My 2010 MN has 120,000 ks on it, taking ownership at 70 thousand and assuming the previous owner didn't have any inlet manifold clean schedule... Do you think it would be okay to do the spray cancer while the car is running method every 20,000 ks from here on? My mechanic is offering it to me here in central QLD without the manual clean which seems too good to be true. Don't get me wrong.. he is a very honest guy and a great mechanic, you Brett are a lot like him so i thought I'd ask. There's a few louts up here it seems to get second opinions on this kinda stuff.
Hi good information, I had a engine management light & restricted performance on my 2.7d xf jaguar, I was fed up with my car I was ready to sale it, my mechanic cleaned the air flow sensor, air filter box & pipes, sprayed Wynns egr valve turbo and inlet manifolds cleaner down the intake, blanked off the egr with blanking plates and finally retuned my ecu which increase my bhp by about 40hp and cleared fault codes. I took my car on the motorway for a clean out, Wow best visit ever to a mechanic my car runs beautifully 70000 miles on the clock, mpg is about 32, take off is smooth but the magic happens once rolling the pull/pick-up is awesome. I would never sale my car now.
so if you do this mod do you have to put the blocking plates on or leave them off. i am looking to do this mod but not sure if i want to put on the blocking plate.
See how convoluted the engine is now that the epa got their hands on it.
I give my 2.0 CR TDI a good thrashing every now & then. Seems to keep the EGR & DPF clean.
Same let her warm.up , turbo cool down b4 switch off, change gears at 2000 but every now and then flog her thru the gears blow all the shit out the back 👍🏻
PocketRocket1 I have a 2.0 tdi i just wanna know how to keep it running as good as when I bought it. What do you mean thrashing? Like take it out and floor it?
Lmfao
@A C Yes! A good thrashing! Just like Basil Fawlty did to his car on "Fawlty Towers"!
@@birdmannichols939 Yes. It's just as if you were doing an "Italian Tune Up", like back when people would really wind out the gears before shifting, in order to blow the carbon off the valves of their often Italian, sports cars, but in this case, you'd be blowing the sticky build up out of your EGR valve and intake manifold. You may even see a few big puffs of black smoke coming out of your exhaust, as globs of the sticky mess detach and recirculate through the engine. For automatic transmissions, you can just shift manually. If for some reason, you are unable to shift manually, you can accelerate up a steep hill, so the automatic transmission has no choice, but to shift at higher rpm's.
Crisp mods do a plug in solution. Works fine for me. Temp sensor in the maf sensor controls egr only. Fueling is controlled by other sensors. A good catch can is good too.
This is correct. There is actually a second IAT sensor after the turbo on the Mitsu's that it uses for fuelling.
Patrick Sproule Well said fellas, this is my exact understanding too. I have taken the inlet off my Pajero and cleaned it and I can tell you its a difficult complex job for the non mechanic with many bits to be removed and rubber fingers required. Involves removing injector lines and common rail and replacing copper washers etc. The black shit downstream of the EGR was significant causing restrictions particularly at the elbow. Researched this problem intensely and have installed quality oil Catch can and EGR off module. Ecu remapping is definitely an option as Bret is offering but it's 1: not for the do it yourself mechanic. 2: much more expensive. The only issue for the EGR off module is that is does not allow for no exhaust gas in the air mix calculations or charge air and fueling is slightly lean. This perfectly ok for diesel engines being the opposite of petrol where lean mix creates excessive exhaust gas temps. In the real world the engine performance is as good or better with slightly improved fuel economy now without the intake blocking problems. New oil stays significantly cleaner for longer.
Wished you do a video like this on 2012 y61 gu patrol 3.0 ltr td. Cheers
Yes. I have a large V8 Amarican the F350 6.4 I have been 200cc of 2 stroke mix for every 65 leters of fuel or 17 gallons
You could probably make your own, very large catch can using a toilet roll in a good sealed screw top container, cheap to make and cheap to throw away the old toilet roll.
Where can you get this attachment from in uk for Hyundai
BTW that dongle obviously wouldn’t have a capacitor inside. They usually have resistors to reduce the standard 5 volt signal down to a level that tricks the ECU...but as noted, while it might trick EGR activation it’s also feeding incorrect IAT data which will affect fueling...bad idea, especially on later models.
Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the last five to ten years the reliability of turbos (for diesel or gasoline engines) have improved measurably but being such a precise component their life expectancy is still limited, with the repairing (good luck finding someone with that knowledge) or replacement cost I believe would be fairly expensive.
Bull. There was nothing more reliable than a 2.4 D Toyota engine of the 80's, or the 2.5 D Isuzu engine. And that Isuzu engine used less diesel than the best of today. Some of the newer engines, like the Ford 3.2, can not even be fixed. Not that the 3.2 is a Ford engine.
Hi there , I have a question about my triton 2007 for Brett . ? My name is George .
What are the negative side effects from fitting one of those pug in solutions? I have one fitted to my Colorado
If he knew he would have said. There are none.
Not much talk on EGR function in burning the soot out if the DPF. Has that also been removed ?
Older tritons don’t have a dpf
Thank for your video 03-01-2023
2014 triton so blanking is better or standard build
Just clean the egr with oven cleaner.. Job done..
Top man excellent explanation
good job, cheap at $1500 to clean out, last time we rang and got a quote. good job mrt
I actually removed the intake manifold an cleaned it myself and a few hrs later saved the 1500.
$1500 just to clean something that comes off by removing 4 bolts, that's ridiculous. I have an MQ 60k service coming up I may take it off and have look not that there is anything wrong with the EGR. What model do have and dis you take a video?
I have installed 1.5mm thick aluminium plate, Is it ok to use aluminium plate ?
By the time you take off pipes, make and add blanks, you could have cleaned the egr and achieved another 50,000 trouble free miles without trying to reinvent the wheel.
and if you get rid of the EGR you don't have to do the job more than once..... not every year or two cleaning everything out... Also better fuel economy, more power to the wheels,
@@qwertyui90qwertyui90 except in most places you have to replace it before vehicle inspection as the emissions test will return a failure. Better just keeping it clean, as it will do itself if you drive a diesel properly.
@@johnb8956 YEAH, NAH. Exhaust is cleaner without the EGR, i get a better testing score without the egr, also better fuel economy and the engine inlet isn't choking on soot.

Sorry, this response comes so late after your initial comment but noticed no one replied. I have the same engine in my Astra twintop. I would recommend in this situation, giving the engine a 3-direction seafoam treatment and re-check your oil level. These engines do not like being over-filled. So first check you haven't put too much oil in... It can pull it into the turbo system and cause excessive turbo wear or even complete failure. The ECR systems on these engines are vile and spew gunk all over the injectors nearest the recovery pipe. If I were you, knowing how temperamental these engines are with this system is give it a good seafoam treatment, set up your engine back to stock and install a relatively inexpensive Oil Catch can. This takes the recovered air (with its oil-mist gunk) and separates the oil mist out of the recovered exhaust air fairly well. I'd also recommend the temperature trick sensor (look for a good one, if a cheap one fails it can have bad results) I would recommend the Purvent catch can designed by Mann+Mummel (OEM Air intake manufacturer and put a new OEM air filter on at the same time) If you spend this 100-200 on your engine it will keep going forever with normal servicing. Sorry if this is too late a reply but hopefully it will help someone at least.
MRT Performance So what can I do about the egr issue on an older diesel with out a ECU.
Block your erg valve.
Remove it and burn it
Will it work on American made diesel trucks?
ive blanked off a couple of ERG's now, run better, cleaner, better MPG and no valve jamming and no dash lights, the euro emissions are so stringent that engines are choking in dirty intake air via exhaust manifold recirculation, take plate off for MOT if needed,
Brett would an EGR oil catch can be a good addition?
EGR has no oil to catch.
Colin Walker you may be thinking about the PCV.
I’ll give you short version of what should be done and what shouldn’t. Don’t ever let anyone ‘chip or remap’ your ecu, if it goes wrong you then have to hope that same person or garage can deal with it. Don’t delete or blank the egr as it cools the combustion temperature as well as other things. Most definitely fit a good quality catch can/separator as this will prevent the sludge buildup.
EGR is closed at higher speeds. The cooler is used to cool the hot exhaust gasses before it goes back into the intake.
Reply to Dino Shed - See my comments above - following on - I removed my 2007 C4 Picasso inlet manifold and scrapped away at it and removed approx 1ltr of oily crud - unbelievable - its now soaking in DPF filter solution to try and remove crud trapped in internal nooks etc, ideas anyone? Dino - your solution to fit an extra/post market oil separator is I think a good idea cos my crankcase PCV floppy diaphragm had cracked in several places making it inoperative ( Q how does this work) which must have contributed dramatically to the oily/carbon mix build-up in the inlet manifold - where can you get one of these oil separators I suppose it is not unlike the demister in an oil industry separator vessel - the bigger the vessel the more retention time for the oily mist to drop out methinks...joe
on NZ tritons the buildup is more like the consistency of Marmite...
No, Bovril.
So reprogramming the Engine ECU is the best way to fix the problem of soot build-up? Can one assume that your reprogramming of the ECU will not introduce other issues, and you provide a written guarantee that any issues which may arise will be repaired by you, even up to repair or replacement of an engine which has a catastrophic failure as a result of the reprogram?
Paul, we guarantee all our work 100%
what would happen if u removed the pintle out of the solenoid, it would ultimately just stay closed like a blanking plate
Does an oil catch can help?
How do you then control the combustion temperature, NOx production and ozone layer people health etc
Lol
Good question.
EGR valve closes when engine is working hard anyway I.e. the temp range that NOx is produced
@TryABaconSlice actually it's not when the engine is working hard NOx it's when you cruising they say
I got a 2005 mitsubishi Triton 3.2 did 4 X 4 looking for the exhaust O2 sensor
In the uk it is illegal to blank a egr ?when you go for your annual mot test it will fail on emissions better to clean the egr out or renew
If the engine is EURO III no one would know, but EURO IV and newer you're spot on. It'd throw up a MIL which is an immediate MOT failure.
Why would it fail on emissions? Is cos the nox will be too high? I thought the egr only worked when the engine is at idle and shut off when reving ?
great........................

I have deleted my E.G.R on a 2003 TDi direct injection, with 127, 900 miles on it why? because it was clogging up and causing too many issues.M.A.F sensor going down and Turbo not working correctly. Since deleting my E.G.R I have had no issues and it passes the emissions test yearly for over 4 years now. I just disconnected the vacuum hose off the actuator and plugged it with a small bolt and job done so simple, no more clogging up with carbon preventing the butterfly valve from closing and opening correctly to the point I could not start the engine. For my next emissions test I shall reconnect the vacuum hose onto the actuator and see what difference it makes to be reconnected.
Well we can't understand the cause and effect of the plug n pray option , please tell us the down sides ! As not everyone can afford a tune
Where do you get the maf and egr cut off cables? I've tired to find them with with no joy at all.
after what I showed you in this video, why would you even want to do it? :(
Primarily because I've just spent $1500 on two new egr valves, my car is now worse than it was before I was told to change them by the land rover dealer,this way if see if this is the problem area.
I don't want one in my car... but to answer your question it's a munjii cable off eBay. Ahh, i feel dirty now.
Can you re-map the NP Pajero 32 ?
Can you do it on a VW crafter
Need to rename this vid. It informs how to prevent it, not how to fix it.
No it fixes it.... the names fine, the only way to "fix" EGR is to - A) Remove B) Delete or C) Block
Is it functionally viable to disable only the EGR valve electronically - via the ECU - to permanently close the valve and in doing so disable the EGR system I'm also thinking that unplugging the the EGR valve when the valve is closed - [ Q when and how can you tell the valve is closed ] - but that would I think initiate fault codes associated with the valve ie no positional Feedback signal I have a 2007 Citroen C4 Picasso 1.6HDi (104,00Mls ) and just want to rid myself of the dirty system, please advise...joe

This is the result of deliberate excessive EGR strategy of operation in combination with crank case blow by recirculating back to the intake manifold. All of this is only to achieve reduced NOX emissions, rather than a better or reliable engine.
That is incorrect. EGR is not just for emissions, it actually increases the efficiency of the engine when power is not demanded. You need to read up on the way EGR changes the volumetric efficiency of each cylinder by pumping inert exhaust gases back into the cylinder when power is not demanded from the engine.
Drill a three millimetre hole in the blanking plate and the ECU will operate ok, as it's getting a sniff of the exhaust gases.
The ECU can't tell if the thing is blocked. Not the basic systems anyway.
Is your ECU reprogramming EPA LEGAL and approved for Australian roads ? l wouldn’t think so If so the manufacturers would have given us this extra power to beat its competitors And blanking off your EGR now raises your piston crown temperature and often causing engine failure especially in ford rangers all questions you should ask I think the fines are substantial for these mods
