EGR Removal 2006

[Transporter]

Just been advised my delete kit has arrived
Thats not bad as I ordered it at 7.00pm on the 18th from England.
I cant get stuff that quick from Melbourne ?

...was probably cheaper too.

That just sums up australia's shipping/postal service, just really disappointing, not to mention that some times they just leave a pick up card instead of knocking on the door!

I've ordered goods from the UK, Germany and US and they tend to arrive faster than sending a panel from Interstate to Brisbane CBD!!

Good luck with the Install

Shipping was $45 the total for part and air frieght was $186
I would love to buy Australian but at these prices ?

Have a chat to "Transporter" who lives in Adelaide and does mobile servicing and also offers ECU tuning so he could no doubt help you out with getting rid of the light on your dash.

I should pick it up tomorrow and thanks I have a couple of people to try for the dash delete..!

Just picked it up.
Now to be honest it might just be me but it seems so much more responsive.
The EGR was close to being fully blocked, possible reason why the cooler split???
Total cost just over $400 for part, shipping and fitting compared to $1700 just for a new EGR/ cooler part alone??
No code showing and I am back on the road.
Take a look at Darkside Developments web page, cant recommend them enough.

Update
I swear it is using a lot less fuel, I havet done an actual test but a tank is lasting longer?
I should have done this ages ago..!

Hey Scouser cheers for the story mate, my van has been running like poo of late! Maybe a EGR replacement would be in order, i get 620km per tank and 670 at best! I have a AXE as well, my mechanic says i may have a crack in the exhaust manifold as it whistles when revving between gears, we havent gone for a replacement due to there being no black smoke stains under the bonnet, annnyways, can anybody flash the ecu or did you have to hunt around? Did u install that part yourself? All good if you dont want to specify companies!

Cheers

I bought the part from Darkside in the UK same place I got the manifold a cast one, compared to the mild steel original at less than half price.
My mechanic is a VW place and he removed the codes couldnt be happier.
