Hello everyone, Any help on this much appreciated, I've managed to source an egr blank plate for my Octavia, it's the Cr 170 tdi engine, gen 1 I believe, I'm wanting to know we're is best to fit the blank plate? Thanks for any help in advance👍🏻👍🏻

Yes m8 sorry, can pick em up for between 5 and ten pounds, the ones from darkside are in the pricey side

Really appreciate the reply but there really pricey compared to others I've seen, I just crnt find the right one for my car, thanks again Thanks m8 will message him

Hello everyone, back for some help if possible, thanks for any help in advance, I'm looking for a egr blanking plate for my mk 2 Skoda Octavia vrs 170 Cr tdi, it's the the engine coded CEGA, Ive looked on eBay but struggling to find the correct one for my engine as I'm unsure if mines gen 1 engine or gen 2 engine it's a 62 plate car like I say with the cega engine in it, any help or links to the correct part much appreciated

It is possible to roll back to original software, but not sure about the the measures they do for the fix, someone else may be able to tell you the other work they do, it's Mabeys worth speaking to some tuners about rolling back👍🏻

Whats it been like m8, did it chick much smoke out? How's engine run with no dpf? Cheers for response

Cheers Langer's ,cars going for revo remap and swirl valve delete, dpf and egr left in for now as no issues with either yet, thanks very much for the responses👍🏻

Cheers Phil, spoke with company yesterday, it's going for revo map and was told again it would not need gearbox map, so yeah, hopefully they know what there doing 👍🏻 thanks for the info

Yeah defo m8, they need to be open don't they haha👍🏻👍🏻 will speak to them about full delete kit as would be preferred but the two tuners I've spoke to both said they have left them in and had no problems, (I know they all say that)😂 how much did bkd manifold end up costing, trying to avoid full replacement tbh but if it saves the engine either or is Guna need to be done👍🏻 Thanks again for the info👍🏻

I'm not so sure they are stuck, I think it's the linkage from motor to the flaps, so surley they will just sit closed once switched off? When inspected by the dealer they said every think was working fine!!

Cheers Phil, spoke to darkside who said a similar thing about being tuned properly, speaking to a company called btg performance up newcastle were I live, the lad literally said straight off the bat I wouldn't need a gearbox map so fingers crossed, if not tuned properly would I feel this drop off in power and touque? So if it's not done right would I be to tell straight away or is the reduction minimal?

Ok so I've herd about he dpf monitor app available on Android, what do I need to use it?

Hi, as the title suggests I'm going for a remap on my cr 170 TDI dsg equipped vrs, after alot of research and mixed opinions, I'm.still undecided weather to have the dpf deleted and egr deleted along with the remap or leave both in? Looking for advice off people who have had both done, just a remap with both left in or remap with both out? Thanks for any replies and any help in advance👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻

Thanks for the replies, after speaking to a couple of tuners it sounds as if a stage one map won't need any gearbox tuneing, thanks again

Hi, after doing bit of research it's looking likley I'm going to have the swirl valves mapped out along with a stage one revo tune👍🏻 thanks alot for the replies

Did it effect the dsg box shift points at all? Thanks for the reply

Hello, any help with this much appreciated, I'm looking to have my car remapped, has anybody had a remap done without having the dsg gearbox remapped? I'm worried that a remap may cause the gearbox to start shiffting funny as the power and torque would be spread different than a a standard map ! Any help much Appreciated thanks

Hi, any help with this is much appreciated, I've recently had my mk 2 vrs cega engined cr170 to local Skoda dealers as I have an intermittent engine management light coming on, the dealer has confirmed the dreaded swirl valve fault code and is wanting to strip the wiring from the swirl valve motor to the ECU to rule out bad wiring at a cost of £240!! The cars done 74,000 miles, they tested the swirl flap runner motor and is working and getting 5v to it as it should, I've a strong suspicion the swirl flaps are starting to stick in the manifold hence the intermittent fault!! I know there's a swirl flap delete kit available, is there anybody on here who has had the swirl flap delete done? And also how has the car been since having it done? Thanks again for any info on this👍🏻

Hi sorry for late reply, indeed I've entered it wrong Langer's!!! Confirmed by Skoda that the update is outstanding👍🏻👍🏻, thanks for the info again Not such a good trip to the dealers btw😑😑 I'll start a new thread👍🏻

Thanks for reply, yeah thought all the Cr 170s were affected! Very strange how the websites saying it's not, I've not got access to vdcs so I'll have a look for the sticker in the boot thanks, other than that I'll see what the dealer says when I get it back as I've asked them to double check👌 thanks agin for the help 👍🏻

Hi, thanks for the replies, just dropped car off at the stealers as I've an intermittent EML coming on, the lad said it Dsnt look like it's been updated, obviously I don't want it done, I've always stated that when took to Skoda dealers , it's just when I've used the official checker it's saying my car wsnt affected when I'm 99.9 certain it was, anyways wish me luck 😂😂😂

Hi everyone, I've just entered the chassis number from my mk 2 Octavia 2.0 Cr 170 TDI vrs into the emission checker on skodas website and it's saying my vehicle is unaffected!!! Does this mean the update has been done or like it says! It's not effected?? I don't want the update but was under the impression all the 2.0 Cr tdis 170s were effected, thanks for any help with this
