EGR Blanking (Bell Auto services)

Hello everyone.

Got myself to Bell Auto services on Friday, had my sticking EGR valves blanked off and a nice new silicone hose all fitted within 1 hour by Pete.
Must say what a really nice guy he is and very professional, even if all his water was frozen and i had to wait 40 minutes for a coffee!!

I noticed an imediate improvement after blanking, car now drives better and has no hesitation on application of throttle.

Thanks Pete for a job well done.

David.

If you don't mind me asking, what year is your D3.

I have EGR problem (FC PO405-21 - Low Signal ???) on my TDV6 2007 and I understood these couldn't be 'blanked off'... if thats now changed I would like to know how much it costs etc.

Cheers

 Why do I have 2 big hands when my D3 maintenance requires small hands and at least three of them ?

mine is 06 reg, and the main problem was in the morning it just would not rev, it would only tickj over.

Pete at Bell auto charged me £100.00 to supply & fit the blanking plates.

he does just supply but for me it was easier to pop over to his unit and have him fit them.

I think it all changed on my year with EGR Big Cry - I think I will drop a Pete a line and see if he's managed to come up with a solution.
