engine light on after fitting egr delete

[m16uch]

i have a asz engine ~

i fitted a  egr delete 15 min later the engine light came on and has not gone off, is this normal? i put it on obd2 reader and erased it but came back on mins later

just wondering if this is normal or should i worry about it,

thanks

Needs mapping out.

[jamwatn]

Normal. Would need mapping out to remove light

Look under the forum heading 'Diagnostics, Performance & Tuning, there is a heading for VCDS; there's a map and list on there of members who have VCDS (was vagcom) and should be able to sort you out (perhaps for a few 'beer tokens!)

Needs mapping out but if you ain't got the money to do that yet get one of the £25 code readers of eBay that will remove it when ever it comes on until you get it mapped again there also handy to have anyway mine has more than covered any costs I would have incurred by getting diagnostics done it don't do much just engine reads, abs, airbag and auto transmission

Needs mapping out on the asz? :think:

 

Mines deleted and no light on.

 

Thought it was just the blt it needed mapping out on?

I will be going past Huddersfield on Wednesday, happy to meet up and VCDS/map it out for you if you are in the area and have time. Just let me know.

 

 If anybody has done the map out before with VCDS a few pointers would be gratefully received

According to this thread, EGR delete is not possible with VCDS, so I guess I can't help you.

Surely people must have read what happens when you delete the egr? About a billion threads on this

[Kyle_vrs]

The only way to do a egr delete without mapping it and the eml coming on is to put the blanking plates on the manifold and the egr where the connecting pipe is and leave the rest connected. Think the blanking plates are a few quid each. Mines mapped out but still in place and connected up

[coskev]

To the OP,Have you bunged up/blanked off the vacuum pipes that go to EGR and ASV?

But this is a ASZ,most people just delete EGR with no probs.

 

How does the EML come on when EGR is deleted on the ASZ engine,what sensor tells the ECU it's not there?

Cause on the ASZ there are no electrical connections to the ECU,just vacuum pipes to the EGR valve and ASV which operate the valves.

maybe it'sa BLT engine then if this has never happened on an ASZ engine before? Like you've just said there's no electrical connections to it so surely that would suggest it's not ASZ

[m16uch]

yes bunged vacuum pipes. its a asz engine, i will just get it remmapped and mapped out at same time, i used a obd2 reader which erased it but then came on. doesnt bother me at the moment but will get it sorted before next mot

thanks anyway guys

What fault is it showing when you read it?

Ive got the ASZ engine code, and i decided to put the blanking plates on the egr and the manifold. I left all the pipes connected to the egr aswell. My car was fine for a few days, then the eml came on. I thought the ASZ wouldn,t throw any faults up. Just wondering is there any else to check, or if it needs mapping out aswell,

 

Many thanks

[seanw]

Mine is on since I done the wingnut mod. asz engine too. Think the fault that comes up is insufficient flow

[pete_fabbie_vrs]

Mine is an asz and I've had egr delete done and eml came on apparently it will keep coming on every now and again until the egr is mapped out

I believe the computer reads the difference in oxygen levels..

Pretty sure they are not fitted with any sensors in the turbo/exhaust,where does it monitor Oxygen level?
