First I want to apologize for any grammar mistake or any word that is not understandable.
I am having problems with my EGR valve,first i had a problem with the air sensor and the car wouldn't pull,i have replaced the sensor now and the car was working great but as soon as you passed 120KM/H the car would slow down and wouldn't pull without turning it off and starting it again. I cleaned the EGR valve and now the car will accelerate up to 140-150KM/H and slow down again. I was wondering what would happen if i was to remove the vacuum hose that connects to the EGR. OR if i was to open the valve manually and keep it open. What would the consequences be,or would there be any.
Thanks in advance
Car would run funny (specifically rough idle) and your emissions would go out of whack as the computer is expecting a certain amount of mixed gases (if you care).
Are EGRs that expensive in your area? You can also try a wrecker. From a performance standpoint I don't think there's any advantage to removing an EGR.
I am planing to remap my c200 that has EGR problems and wont go over 120KM/H, so i am planing to do a EGR off (or egr delete idk if its the same) and increase the power by 30-35PS. Stock the car has 120PS but increasing the power will depend on the engines condition.
Will there be any problems on passing emission test and what will the car feel/drive like?
Thanks in advance
I would disable the EGR, if your car is the 2002 W203 then its the simpler if 2 mods, its it has been done electronically on many models by using a the same few simple components and seems to work well, unfortunately the thread explaining the details is on a different forum so i'm not certain the forum rules allow me to post a link here but if you PM me i will provide it.
I have installed the mod and the cars performance is much improved with a lot less black smoke at full acceleration (which was my problem) and the turbo is a lot more livelier!
