If/where for EGR delete coventry/west mids? Engine trouble
Discussion
Hi guys,
Long story short my dad's Signum 1.9CDTI 150 has gone up the creek
Had the swirl flaps done last year due to the EML coming on at startup and low power, and now the car has started struggling to rev at all from cold and dumps black smoke and raw diesel from the exhaust, as well as black smoke from the engine bay! Any period of time sat idling now results in the smell of burning diesel pouring into the cabin. He's unsure whether to get it fixed as per original spec, have a delete done or drop the car as it's beginning to look like it's lost the reliability that it (sort of) once had (Had swirl flaps, clutch + dual mass flywheel, new tyres and brakes in last year, so he's loathed to get rid but could be cutting his losses maybe).
Pretty sure its the common EGR valve issue with this engine, so where local to coventry would you recommend for an EGR and DPF delete with reprogramming? Or what other route of action would you take? Really don't want this to be a reoccurring fault which seems to be the case with just replacing the EGR.
