crapcable

I think the stock VR6 handles like crap though. Didn't you? Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

This one has my juices going lol. Didn't it make you wanna find out how it detected your egr was blanked etc ? If it was me,I'd want to know lolSent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

I'm curious-What kinda car do you have? What engine? If an EGR has no electrical connector the ecu doesn't know at all that the egr is doing it's job. That's the same reason the euro4 engine can be blanked & the euro4 cant. Same with ford,BMW,Peugeot etc. Sure your other air inlet sensors were ok? As they can throw egr eml's. I've never ever heard of a non sensor type egr throwing an egr eml before. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

Had the same problem a while back & tried new cts but no joy. Ended up the ECU was shot.hope yours isn't this though Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

Did you find the cause? Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

No more eml on my dti 2003,after blanking egr. Had 1 initially but forgot to reset ecu duh. My 2003 vag had eml same as you,as it also had elec connector on egr etc. Ah I long for old days of just basic cars.cars nowadays are a nightmare. Had a 308hdi and it was a terrible car because of so many sensors. Even Peugeot said diagnosing faults was hard.. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

I agree.I did same job and ive never been so frustrated! This job can be a pigSent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

Are you meaning the smf I had with VR6 kit?I honestly can't remember,but if it's important to you,I'll check my emails/bills Ps: it was a G60 SMF . car was golf tdi ATD/EUH. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

Cheers I'll give it a try in morning. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

No way is there ANY difference in feel between a dmf and smf!e Apart from feeling vibrations with smf of course. You're experiencing a new clutch not difference in flywheels Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

Have you seen the cost of parts?? Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

I also stripped 3 MMT6 boxes after smf conversions & the input shafts were shot. Also stripped 2 vag (1 x 5 speed & 1x6)& both had identical shaft failures. Crank bearings were bad also. It's hard to get folk to listen to reason sometimes as smf conversions have only been sold for a number of years,& I personally know forum owners in cahoots with well-known companies that sell these kits,giving them kickbacks.(none on here that I know of anyway). Everytime a member disputed something with hard facts against smf conversions, a few (same 1's every time) discouraged the interested party from taking his advice.there's tons of money at stake so a lot of folk don't want the true facts and the damage done,to be known openly. Trust me. It's not good for your pride n joys Ps: dmf get a bad name unnecessarily. The average dmf will last a minimum of 60k - 100k. If you're tuning a car,you should be putting in an uprated dmf. I know 2 of Scotlands leading transmission specialists & they think smf conversions are only good for a certain number of cars and vans. Another thing. Folk were saying skoda were fitting smf conversions as standard. This is 100% untrue. If you don't believe me,phone skoda. Some even want a waver signed when and if they do 1 Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

sorry but ive posted a similar post elsewhere on forum & think it is in wrong place.anyway here goes: can anyone help out. my old mans octy mk1 ALH tdi seems to deviate between -1deg and 8degrees on cyl 1 ignition timing.can anyone shed any light on it please? i have 2 logs here from vcds but no joy upto now from anyone that has a clue about timing etc. anyone?

think you have that wrong mate. Its normally the MAF/MAP flow rate etc that gives it away the egr's with electrical connectors pick up on the valve opening thru a switch inside the EGR housing at the top itself.this is the reason a lot of cars cant be mapped out(egr) as everything is connected for flow rates etc theres no way the ecu can know how the vacuum is drawing etc same idea as mk3 mondeo that cant be mapped out. the flow rate from MAF/MAP and intake etc,when the egr is opened doesnt match the parameters stored in ecu,so says 'aha,this shouldnt be such n such,only fact available to it is the back up figures in ecu etc so switches on EML'
