I have emulators fitted and I like them. However, you need for the EGRs to be fully closed before fitting emulators.
I have a 2009 D3 (VIN ending 5AG0325xx). I believe my EGR valves are getting stuck again although I cannot confirm this until I get my Nanocom back from repairs. Last year I had an issue with the car not being able to pull away from an intersection and at that time the Nanocom showed the EGR's were stuck open. A hammer and a length of wood fixed them.
The car is at 128,000km so I have little doubt that the EGR's are failing and due for replacement.
I had a quick looksee a few months ago and it looked like a pair of genuine valves from the UK might be around $750 landed however I just looked again and am now confused which ones my year takes. Ideas?
What are the current options for deleting the EGR valves. I believe my year/model is such that I cannot just unplug them. I have seen emulators for sale but these seemed to have been pretty much the same (if not more) in cost than just replacing the valves. Are there other options such as using the Nanocom to play inside the black boxes?
Is it even worth deleting them (I do like to keep my cars standard where possible).
Sorry to bring up something that has been discussed many times but I am just some confused with it all!!!

I believe Bell Automotive Solutions BAS have an alternative solution.
They do. This also requires a functioning EGR.

Curious , but if the electric actuators still work how would the system know if the mechanical valve isn't connected ?

Hmmm sounds like I may as well just install new valves!
Do a search for ERG deletion , there is a wealth of info on here .
I have (first port of call b4 asking a question) but some of the info is quite old and TBH it all just confused me.
Actually if they are working then Garrycol's idea has merit. Remove them but leave them plugged in to the wiring but fit a blanking kit, system still thinks they are working but no gunk.
My idea is similar but remove the mechanical valves and leave the actuators connected.
