CAR EGR ERROR Audi A4 2.0TDI 140BHP 2006 model, B7 shape, BRE engine The car has had a full s/steel exhaust system fitted, including decat. The manifold had been taken out and fully cleaned of all gunk/soot (about 18 months ago now and I do 12k miles a year) I uploaded a Stage2...

Hi mate, thanks for the reply. I went down the route of springs and uprated dampers, as coilovers are so expensive and I had read reports that they can be overhard, whereas progressive springs like Eibach and H&R give decent comfort. I don't mind too much swapping springs but don't want to go...

Hi, My Audi A4 (B7) is lowered -30mm on Eibach springs. The ride and handling are great but the car still sits too high for my liking at the rear (front is perfect!). I spoke to the guys at Awesome GTI and they reckon that the H&R springs would make the car sit more flat than the Eibach...

hi mate, my car is lowered 30mm all round on eibach springs and 10mm spacers front/20mm spacers rear. i found that the front tyres were catching on the screw on the inside of the arch that helps hold the lining in. i removed these screws on either side and now no problem :) don't worry, as the...

i also have a 2.0TDI TDV and would be interested in the reply to this thread. i've had a cat back performance exhaust fitted but i want to know if it is just a cat or a particulate filter. this is because i am very interested in decatting with a straight through pipe or 'punching through' the...

hi there, great looking car :yes: may i ask how much the car is lowered and if there has been much degradation in ride comfort and if you are limited in the number of passengers you can carry? i went for a 30mm all round drop on my A4 on eibach springs, as i didn't want to compromise ride...

Hi everyone, I have an update.... I asked Superchips if they could write in an EGR delete into my remap. They charged me £50 plus VAT and promptly sent me the new map. I used my Bluefin device to d/load the new map to my car. The engine warning light disappeared but the car was still going...

2006 Audi A4 B7 2.0TDI I wonder if anyone can help? Yesterday, I had the EGR valve blanked off using two blanking plates. The chap that did the work is a mate that works for Audi. Admittedly, he had not performed this mod before but obviously knows where everything is, etc. Anyway...

i have a superchips bluefin for my 2.0TDI and the improvement in torque and performance is really noticeable! i also had fitted a turbo-back 2.5" bore st/steel exhaust system and now the car is a real flying machine! lol
