pms01 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 getting problems with codes pointing to the EGR valve, once in while the "coil" light comes on and the can goes into limp mode, very little info on the net about A8's, cant even find a picture telling me where the valve is, read a lot about putting in a blank plate, most articles on the web states it does no harm and eliminates this limp mode problem, however, just been to an Audi expert, ( not main dealers ) who was horrified, told me it buggers the engine, fractures egsaust pipes causes massive problems and he just wont do it to any audi ! Little confused now, any info would be helpfull, (picture of where the !Removed! thing is would be great ?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Q Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 You'll need to get a remap after the blanking plate is installed. But you may find your aydu won't pass an MOT under the new rules and regs with a blanking plate installed. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
