Here is a picture of the mechanism inside the black plastic housing, as you can see the 'T' bar has snapped off, the round disc is the top hat.
I have removed the disc and welded the 'T' bar back onto the trumpet which controls the amount of exhaust gas allowed through.
I have removed the EGR valve and stripped it down to find the actual trumpet has snapped off the adjuster fork.
A picture in a bit will show what I mean but this does mean I need a new EGR valve :(
Why is it that every time I log into Audisport.net I get redirected to the Audi Magazine
to be faced with the same message that I don't have the authority to access this page...
I have to click on the forum button to redirect to the forum even when i've entered my username and password via the...
The P0404 is a recognised code for diesel engines with electronic EGR valves, I must admit I did use a MAC tools scanner
but i'll have access to VCDS on Monday. I keep meaning to buy VCDS but I never seem to get round to doing it.
Yeah it's a 2.0 TDI 170
Engine code is BMN, i'm a diesel mechanic for merc benz but I do know that a blocked DPF can cause EGR issues and vice versa ;)
Well last night the EML come on and then this morning the DPF warning came on.
I used a scanner and checked the fault codes, there's only one fault.
P0404 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation circuit range/performance
Now obviously because of this EGR fault the DPF won't regenerate :/
Anyone got any...
I've been searching and searching and searching but I can't find the thread about the modified grill with the RS6 honeycomb.
Looking to do this, any body know where I can find it or has anyone a shortcut to it :)
You might struggle with the rears as the E.T. ideally could be a little higher than 40.
They might fit with plenty of tyre stretch and then you can add some camber to slide them in ;)
As for what wheels they are, that doesn't matter does it...
On the second picture it looks like you've pushed to wheel back in which case your looking at a subframe and possible jigging of the subframe mounting points - very expensive!!
Mine isn't as bad, just front end and one wing, no steering damage ect...
The guy from the repair shop seems to think...
yeah fully comp ect...
it'll not be a write off, just wants a front end, parts alone are 2k then 1k -1.5k for paint and labour, the car is worth 10k
so that's a lot less than 50% which I believe is the economical cut off percentage.
I was at fault pal, I drove into the other lane to avoid been sandwiched between a lorry and a double decker bus.
I hit another lorry coming the other way, there's no way around it, my fault, least its just front end damage really.
