This is WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST EXPLANATION about the EGR! All the other videos ive seen only focus on the egr recirculating exhaust gas into the intake, but they never explain why, what for, the way it all operates. This video COVERS IT ALL! I could honestly say that i was one of those who considered the egr a dumb idea and question what it was for. THANK YOU FOR THE VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO!

Great video, watching from Australia !
mechanic here , this guy is correct, also D4D hilux/prado etc pistons crack due to high engine load (full power up a hill towing a caravan example), hot piston ,cold fuel shot at piston.......so if you can lower the combustion temp you improve the chances of pistons lasting. so EGR needs to stay. sadly it will soot up the intake but there are ways to mitigate this. im sure ill get critics but its true (i wish it wasnt haha)
Ive watched at least 10 videos on EGR and NOTHING has explained it with so much clarity as you have. I feel I fully understand it and other things now regarding engines, such as pumping loss which I have never heard before today. Subscribed INSTANTLY 🏆
You should be a teacher if you are not already.absolutely brilliant video explaining everything including pros and cons.even if 1 person benefits and is educated your work sir is a triumph.education is empowerment and you have empowered already 60k plus people.bravo may you keep helping people and get your just rewards.
I have been a heavy duty diesel mechanic for over 30 years now. None of the emissions changes they have made have given trucks better fuel economy. But like he mentioned deleting the egr system greatly effects the combustion temperature. I have seen many deleted engines and they are know for cracking the head due to higher temperatures.

Brother...that was so to the point..and informative...I watch Chris fix, Scotty , a handful of other vehicle diagnostics and repair channels..dude that was delivered in a manner that I have to say is one of the easiest to get a good mental grasp of the egr system..the illustrations the slow pace.. the constant explanation of everything mentioned previously. ..dude you got a like and subscribe today...id rank this video up there with a few of my favs from project farm...so yeah.

Very well explained about the egr system 👍 I have a 1KD-FTV 3L turbo diesel and what I did after removing and cleaning the whole intake system was put a blanking plate with a 7mm hole in between the egr cooler and number 1 pistion intake . This still allows the egr to flow at a lower rate sloweing down carbon biuld up with no codes coming up 😊 worked 4 me .
Woah ,if you don't understand will never understand. What a top notch explanation and details. Superb. Very smooth and a calmly way no background music ,I really enjoyed and learned from it.Thank you for your precious time and effort. 😊

@@MrDIYer If the egr is deleted on a diesel, doesn’t the intake valve being open during intake prevent pumping loss? If not open wide enough, it could be tuned to open more, allowing the piston to move as intended? What about the excessive heat? Is there a software/tuning solution or hardware (cooling) solution besides obviously an egr?
16:53 carbon buildup is EXACTLY why I deleted the EGR....Owned 4JX1 car since 2000, now 35000km's...deleted EGR 3-5 years ago...Excess black smoke STOPPED during acceleration...Performance SAME....Economy SAME...Oil is CLEANER now at changes....Needles to say what I think about EGR :)

Probably it was faulty already. EGR cycle only happens at low rmp without power demand. If you floor it, EGR just disengages. Probably your egr was stuck open and your engine did not get enough oxy during hard acceleration, it was the root cause of the black smoke. Nevertheless I deleted mine as well... TDI has lot of kms, slight amount of oil coming from my turbo and pcv valve too. If it mixed with diesel exhaust gas, it just makes huge mess. I don't give a shit about a small amount of inefficiency or greenhouse gases, if I do not have to disassemble the whole intake system and clean it with harsh chemicals every 100k kms.

@@wolforla My 2000 now has nearly 370km and continues to run fine with egr disconnected. My only problem is 1 litre of diesel gets into the sump every 1000km due to injector issues, NOT sleeve or seals since they have been done twice recently. I have purchased an injector spring and o-ring overhaul kit but requires actual dismantle of injectors to fit, do-able and not too hard but simply cant be bothered.' Instead I simply change oil every 2000km and low refill with just 5 liters of any cheap 20w50. Yes, car starts and runs fine even in winter with thick oil. Drain when dipstick shows overfull and then fill with 5l which brings it to just below ADD LINE on dip stick. Good thing is that diesel in oil plus regular changes (every 2k) is cleaning crankcase - been doing it nearly 18 months now - 20k

Nice explanation, I've been driving diesel cars for taxi for years. my advice, if you don't want endless costs, issues and codes, get a diesel car with less sensors, egr, dpf, adblue, additives and other complicated components that needs the car to be plugged in to figure out what is going wrong. diesel cars only needs service and that's it.

Awesome video and a huge thank you. I was about to blank off my EGR system and bypass the cooler on my 3.2Lt Ford Ranger due to an issue this vehicle has with the EGR cooler failing and hydraulic locking the engine due to coolant entering the intake.
