EGR Emulators

For those waiting for the issue to be fixed,I will be having a chat with Fatso when he supplies a phone number.
At the moment you guys have been good not launching into name and shame issues etc.
Perhaps the handful of you can band together via PM to Fatso(Allen) and he can take it from here.
I had a chat with Kevin at Rover-Tech today,I believe there is good news.
For the time being please keep behaving as you have.
THANKS

When Gally gathers this up and sorts it he needs you guys who were his test mules,sure they were issues,but when sorted he needs you as happy customers in the end as referees for the product.

Hoping it works out well for all those involved.
Andrew

Bump
Is there an update on the emulator for the 3.0 as yet. Would really love to get one asap.
Landy Andy, have you had recent contact with Gally?
Cheers, Graeme

I've left phone messages and emails for the last few weeks without any response trying to find out what's happening with the 4.4 TDV8 version (single EGR valve version of the 3.0 TDV6) that was paid for some time ago. An indication that the project is still proceeding would be greatly appreciated.

Kevin at Rovertech (referred to by Andy above) just put an emulator on mine and removed the EGR water cooling system and everything else to get access to the turbos. It is now throwing up an orange engine light which GAP IID says is EGR open circuit or something like that so I have to take it back. Hopefully they can get it sorted so that the engine light is available for a real problem!


I'll let you know what happens. I can clear the fault but the light comes back after about 4 or 5 starts.

Wow just read this whole thread didn't understand more than half of it, got the gist that the EGR gets closed off.

I was reading with interest up unto the last couple of pages, the lack of communication rings alarm bells for me.

Why can't the EGR be closed off with a GAP tool [emoji780]

EGR is not an optional system, it is fitted to all diesel variants, so not something can can just be set to "not fitted" like other systems.

The 2.7 TDV6s could possibly be. Mine currently has a Gap IId egr remap from Bell Auto . Whether or not it works I couldn't tell you... Can't read the open/closed values unfortunately.

They didn't charge me, and correspondence stopped once i said the reading are N/A...

EU 4 - 2.7 - Well I bought 2 new egrs for $100 each 3 years ago and have them plugged into the wiring loom - not fitted to the exhaust - original egrs still in place on the exhaust and blanked and the system is still working well - not eml and no codes - a cheap alternative to replacing EGRs or getting emulators.

Retrofit kits are available.

Good idea. In my case emulators were a lot cheaper than new EGRs.
