hi kenners - check out my rather amateurishly titled 'blue pipe' thread - that covers it. FYI a guy from LR Technical Support suggested that I just unplugged it and left alone - seems to have had some effect on the low down grunt but not a great deal to be honest

Thanks for advice!

If you've clocked up a good few miles. I would take it off and clean it.

There some photos of mine on my 75 page (same engine) here:

This after 99k miles and I noticed the difference!

Hi. Just got an EGR bypass valve today. Is it difficult to fit & what do I do with the vacum pipe when I disconnect it from the ERG valve? Is there anything else I need to do when I am fitting this?
Many Thanks. You are all great for advice

Will bypassing the egr drastically improve emmissions?

Hi David
Just put in a self tapping screw in the end of the pipe to seal it and all i did was to coil the pipe up and tie it out of harms way and out of sight of nosey mot`ers all the rest is self explanatary worth the effort though mine runs much better

I fitted EGR By=Pass to my TD4 and after day or so the engine makes a whinning sound after I switch it off as if a motor was spinning free and slowing down. Any ideas? At first I taught it was the tubro slowing down but dont think that is is.Am confused

I know, why don't you hit every thread you can find on the subject with the same question ?

Oh sorry, you already did that.
