Has anyone had experience or issues with blocking the EGR valve on a 2011 D40 2.5 diesel navara?
Removing it would be ok, apart from the fine if anyone checked. As for routing it to the airbox, not sure that'd work. When being fed from the exhaust manifold, it is being pushed back in under pressure and pulled through by the inlet air. Trying to make it suck in air at atmospheric pressure from the airbox is where you may find it just pushes charge air back out into the airbox. That would also screw with the fuel metering as air that has been across the maf sensor will then be let back out, resulting in less air than what the maf has already metered... does that make sense?I was thinking the other day about the flow issue...if your not worried about legalitys and nissan...why is it not possible to remove the egr tubeing.block the exhaust manifold port and pipe fresh filtered air in to the egr from the filter box.
Problem solved..no breathing dirty exhaust and a functioning code free egr....
