Default Re: Blanking Plate

I think the last time I looked into it you'd still have the EGR throw a MIL because the flow of gas is below the threshold its expecting or something similar. You had to program something out for it to go away.

This made me look into DPF deletes and boom up went the cost. New pipework, blanking plate and you either send your ECU for it to be flashed (removing DPF regen activity and reset to 0 for the remainder of it's life).

Or

1. You connecting to the ECU and get the info needed email them they send it back modified you flash.
2. You connect to the vehicle and VPN so they do it remotely.

I stood back at this stage and thought that it's not a problem, may not ever be a problem and it probably would pay to leave it monitor it till it is a problem and wait till then to decide.......4yrs later I'm thinking I took the right course of action.

Nothing stopping you trying fusion666, if you do tell us how it goes.
