    Best EGR removal kits?

    Hi Guys

    With so many kits available for purchase on the internet and ebay ... is there a preference? Can you recommend a vendor?
    TRS / Td5 Alive / All Four x 4 spares ...
    Is there a difference between these and the cheap ones on ebay?

    Thanks

    Disco EMU,
    I got mine and replacement silicon hoses from Paddock Spares in the UK. I thought that they offered the best price inc postage. Very happy with the kit. Just be careful when blanking the exhaust manifold that you are careful not to shear the bolts when removing the EGR pipe as you will need to remove the manifold to get the remaining bolt out.
    Having said that it is a good excuse to remove the webs and replace any dodgy manifold studs!

    Cheers

    When I did mine, started down the normal track. However, getting the pipe bolts out proved near impossible. Came up with a more elegant solution.

    There is a joint below the EGR valve. The joint uses what is known as a Marmion Clamp.

    All I ended up doing was cutting a disc of annealed copper and "fitting" it to the flare.

    The "fit" needs to be good, so as to get the clamp back on and the copper annealed allow the copper to flow.

    Cheers

    The expensive ones are aluminium rather that zinc coated steel. Compare the flanges for example.

    The Allard kit is pretty good. I had a look around when I got mine and it was one of the better kits on offer.

    Allard Turbo Sport - Allard Turbo Sport

    EGRvalve.co.uk - LandRover TD5 EGR Kit

    you'll need to email them for a postage quote to AU. When I got mine the total price worked out close to the same as the UK + shipping cost: £55.00

    I don't think you get the gasket for the plate on the exhaust manifold - don't know why they show it?

    cheers

    I used the TD5 Alive kit, very nice ,one piece alluminium billet. Matches the manifold perfectly and looks like it's factory. I blanked the exhaust at the fuel cooler so I didn'thave to muck around with the hoses (D2-a).

    Cheers Gregg

    Craig, you will be happy with the TD5 Alive kit - I purchased one and the finish and the fit are excellent.

    Cheers

    Your engine will love you Craig, wait till you see how much crap is put back into the engine buy the EGR!. Mine runs smoother,has slightly more torque??,and just feels nicer,maybe a bit more responsive,the best mod you can do on a TD5 I reckon
    Cheers Gregg.
