307 1.6HDI EGR issue

Post by orinoco74 »

Ok it seems I have the usual EGR valve issue with my 05 plate 307 1.6 hdi. I have seen these blanking plates that are offered and have a couple of questions.

1) will it make the engine emission light go off on the dash if I use a blanking plate
2) will there be any power loss by using a blanking plate
3) will I need to disconnect the wiring connector going to the egr valve?

1. It depends on engine. Some owners have needed to delete the EGR from the ECU, so combined it with a remap and / or remap and DPF removal.
2. No.
3. You shouldn't.

I've fitted two plates on the 1.6 110bhp engine in a 57 plate 307 and a 54 plate 407 and not disconnected any electrical plugs.

My current car is a 2L 90bhp 307 and the EGR valve it too hard to reach, so I blocked the pipe and unplugged the electrical connection:
