Yes. They all have them factory. It's an emissions item. Later models can detect when it's removed and will throw a MIL light if removed.

There was a thread about the valve in the Puma, removing the internal cogs,making sure it is shut and it seems to work,without bringing up a fault.

Would be good if it could be done to the later 2.7

Get their remap altered to keep the EGR closed.

tombie thanks,if they change to stay closed can I then blank them or if they remap to stay closed all will be well.Another question,if they remap to close will the system throw a hissy fit or will it be sweet.

Done correctly no issues or errors - as it's the programming telling it to remain closed.

Excuse me hijacking thread, If the ERG is closed from the Remap then would ERG blanking would be pointless?
