We have a BIG Problem in the US called the EPA that frowns on this stuff. This is one agency that needs to GO Away. They don't care if it destroys your engine or how much it costs you either. Your only choices are either buy an older vehicle or take out a loan to repair it. GOV Sucks!

I used to disconnect the EGR valve electrical switch and reconnect a couple of weeks before MOT. Warning light went out after a few days and exhaust emissions returned to spec. Simple fix.

EGR does not increase fuel consumption actually, in fact its primary function is to recirculate exhaust gases back into intake for leftover unburned fumes to be burned further as this this happens emissions are reduced and fuel consumption goes down as a side effect, it is rather small saving but nevertheless it saves fuel - first EGRs were actually used on American petrol engines for grate effect, fany fact recycling those gasses is rather old trick, but it was limited how much gas could be send back to intake again, because at low revs it would choke engine , so when electronics kicked in in cars they could increase or reduce amount of fumes going back to intake depending of engine speed and load - admittedly EGR isn't ideal for diesel engines because of solid particles in it like to stick to things.

I had an unfortunate incident with the MOT and DPF. My son bought a Zafira 1.9, with problems. (MIL light on and complaints about DPF regeneration)I did the work on it and found that someone had cut open the DPF and removed the insides. Then welded it up very badly (it was obvious). They hadn't remapped the ECU, so hence the warning lights. I thought no problem. No DPF, one less thing to go wrong. Got a local tuning firm to re-map it, without the DPF program. Everything was fine until it was MOT time. My son (unwittingly) took it to an establishment that I had, had problems with before. They failed it, because they SAW that the DPF had been tampered with. We had no option (apart from scrapping a 2013 car), but to put a new DPF on it. I took it back to the tuning firm, to have the mapping put back to OE. They did however tell me that they left the EGR program out and were surprised that the MOT place had failed it. So beware, SOME MOT places may 'observe' tampering and act like Greta's goons, and fail you. Of course, it is all on computer record, so other garages may feel obliged to follow suit.

Small bit of important knowledge, you cannot test for egr or dpf- delete and remap and triple your cars life. Edit, just because BBC bullies you to pay a tv license for something you do not watch does not mean you have to pay the tv license. There are a lot of things sheep are told to do and do not question, then there are those of us that know better and refuse to pay shit because we are told and refuse to destroy our vehicles and replace them every few years. We are the guys that are better for the environment.

The oil around the oil filler cap is because the cap or gasket in it might need replacing. It happened to me in a Citroen C4 Picasso, i noticed it for a while but my other car a Citroen C5 the oil cap seemed tighter when opening and closing it so i got a new oil cap for the C4 Picasso cleaned up all the oil and its been bone dry ever since.

If you have concerns about the car failing MRT inspection you could just apply blind gaskets on either side of the egr cooler and keep it there as i have done in my e46. At that point only water flows in the cooler and no risk of it goint to the intake. I believe you dont have to code the ECU also.

All well and good but please remember you have to tell your insurance company that your engine is modified. Removing the EGR is the same mod as removing your catalytic converter or your diesel particle filter. If you don't tell them and your car is involved in an accident and they find out they might not pay out . My daughter works for an insurance company and they will do anything to avoid paying out and this gives them an excuse.

Are there any kit for 2,2 Mazda Skyactive? Do an electronic EGR-delete make the same result except that the exhaustcooler still is there?

Another good video George Cheers. Can I ask a question almost related? I've a 2014 F11 M sport which blew the turbo. I'm ready to re-fit but cleaned all the intake side and the DPF as per your previous videos and I made a blanking plate for the EGR so it all looks Ok but I'll also map it out. Before I refit the turbo, I fabricated an oil bypass hose/pipe combination using the original oil feed and return pipes (I bought new ones for the re-fit) and hoped to be able to run the engine up to temperature and burn off my contaminants from my cleaning process. I connected it tonight and started the engine briefly and, whilst it was very noisy due to no exhaust from manifold, it seemed to tick over just fine. My question is this, in your experience can I run the engine at idle to heat the oil to enable me to do a couple of flushes? I didn't want to fit the turbo and run the old carbon from cleaning through it. I understand if you're reluctant to answer and I accept that perhaps, under normal circumstances this should be Ok, but each situation varies therefore if you, or any of your viewers chip in an opinion, and I somehow damage the engine by running it, then the final decision to run it or not is my responsibility. Thanks again for the excellent videos because I would never have tackled a job like this myself normally but, in doing so, I've saved a fortune.

If you have a mazda 6 2013 and newer and your dash looks like a christmas tree- scbs light, under boost codes, dpf inspec required and the whole limp mode lot, delete the dpf, egr, stage 2 remap then get 300k out of your car and thank me later.

The title is misleading. The EGR system is not actually evil and all vehicles over the last quarter century have some form of it, either through an external system or implemented through the valvetrain so an external valve and pipework is not needed. At first, I was going to give this video a downvote. I actually gave it an upvote, because one of the reasons for removal is the possibility of failure leaking coolant into the engine. My own vehicle had a faulty EGR system. I fitted a restrictor plate as the simplest and cheapest solution, as well as being relatively invisible, doesn't put the MIL on and still allows some of the benefits of EGR.

As far as im concerned thats a brilliant way to go.. all this emission crap just adds failure points and chokes the engines.. long live the dirty diesel 4x4's Muhahahah (yes im evil and have no issue with that so bite me)

Is what you recommend "every diesel car owner to do" legal in the UK???? In my country, Switzerland, it would be clearly illegal, exposing you to a stiff fine the first time you get caught, to a possible prison sentence the second! Police cars are equipped with exhaust gas sensors, so the risk of getting caught is anything but trivial. So, is it responsible to advise doing such things? May I suggest, if you have a problem with diesel EGRs to try an electric vehicle! They are so much better, and overall cheaper!

I hope you would have a glass breaker if you ever get in a wreck in 1 of those things. If you get a Tesla and something happens to your 12 volt battery up front the doors won't open. If you run over something and damage the battery pack under it you get bar-b-qued! Maybe.

@@ln5747 Never heard that one! You made it up? It is largely (but not totally) wrong. Switzerland has pretty light governments, compared to our neighbors'... and a lot of pragmatism in the application of laws and regulations. I put a plural at government, because, as in the US of A onto which Constitution ours was modeled back in 1847, the states (cantons) have their own sets of laws, and their own government. If we don't like a law, ANY citizen can launch either a referendum (against a freshly voted law), or an "initiative" against a long-existing one... or propose a new one. We vote on a good dozen of such topics every year. To my knowledge, that degree of power to the People exists nowhere else! What we often lightly say in Switzerland is: "everything that is not forbidden is obligatory!" Also, the anthem of my native canton is praising "the love of laws..."! True enough! BUT, in the same verse "...freedom and peace". And that is true, too!

@@st-ex8506 ultimate power to the people lies with trial by jury, which does not exist in Switzerland as far as I know. Magna Carta was power to the people like nowhere else and doesn't exist in many places - and has certainly been corrupted even in UK/US by sleights of hand by government. Anything else is an illusion of power to the people. And referenda are generally mob rule.

Great job but it wont pass an mot now mate. They inspect the engine now. Unless you know somebody that will pass it 😬

@GeorgeAusters I would keep going to that garage then 😁 if you went to the garage I work at we would defo notice. Mot testers are trained technicians so they know what an egr looks like. So they are obviously a bit lazy or don't want to do a retest or can't be bothered.

Egr's contribution to emission to emissions is only ~4%. So leave the Dpf in and you will well pass it.

Easy, just take it for an MOT

Why does the EGR fail..?? Why does the DPF fail..?? Because; poor oil/fuel, irregular oil changes and not specific oils used, generally poor maintenance, low temp/distance driving thus the DPF cannot burn off collected grams of soot regularly and change your PCV every couple years..!!! The arrogance from this guy is ridiculous, as with anyone else repeating the same procedure to their vehicles…! I have an friend who’s a MOT vehicle examiner in the SW (Somerset) of England, we’ve spoken many occasions on these emissions control systems and he says he’s failed many vehicles because of people removing those items, he also stated the British government are implementing the latest DPF smoke measuring detector like they’ve had in Holland, Germany and Switzerland already use that measures the exhausted particles…. Then see how wise this removal was to do.!!!

I'll just nip out and do it. I think I have time before tea.

Yep remove or blanking off... We now know that the emissions are actually helping us achieve a greener planet 😂 ... The proof is everywhere
