I have a 2009 Disco 3 TDV6 and have just come across Alive Tuning's TDV6 EGR Bypass Kit. Has anyone got any experience of this? Does the ECU need re-mapping after it's installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My understanding is that it will need software update. On my to do list but doing other little more first.

Plenty of cheap blank plate kits on ebay, literally for pennies.

It was just that I hadn't seen any before today that don't involve taking the EGR's themselves off. This kit looks a lot easier to do!

You can just fit the blank plates between the egr pipe and the manifold either end or remove the pipes totally.
I dont think anyone actually takes the egrs off, way to much work.

Cheers. I guess no re-map then because the ECU thinks all is still working ok?

No, the ECU will need flashing.
And the butterfly valve need removing from the engine air inlet too.
I did my '07my,and it took about 3 hours all in.  New gearbox & TC, 3 x front wheel bearings, belts changed, new oil pump, new battery, new rear prop, new front prop, new front diff, front arb refurbed, front cv boot kit, egr blank and BAS software patch, full rear suspension / drivelive rebuild, new front arms, LED trailer light fix, split charge.
Never had a 107, 90 or 127, but have had most of the rest!
