Thread: What diesels are made for--

A diesel 4wd (not a Land Rover) I have does a lot of short running and recently started to get a whistling noise coming from the engine bay whilst driving. The noise could be altered with slight throttle movements etc. and I suspected the EGR. A few weeks back I went on a one thousand kilometre trip towing a laden bogie trailer, after about two hundred kays the noise disappeared and as yet has not returned.
Obviously a bit of hot air through the old girls gills done her the world of good.


Cheers, Mick.

Bit misleading...

It was a stock Sydney car...

Justin Has now cleaned it out and Done a remap and EGR block...

Anyone that works on modern light diesel vehicles will see this as the norm, that one is a pretty good example.

I do say the "fad" of the last 10 years is.... Bottled water and turbo diesel vehicles....


Once the EGR blanking or emulating has been done, it can take only a few thousand km's to clear itself out, as in the pick below.

I haven't been using my D3 for a while (due to a lot of different reasons) and haven't kept up with the EGR blanking etc, so what is the "latest" news on the subject, I have a 2007 D3 by the way... thanks.

2007 will need an emulator or a remap with electronic delete. 2005 to 2006 are fine with blank8ng off no check lamp will come on.
