E320 E500 Disable / Delete EGR
Just out curiosity, but does anyone know how to disable EGR via STAR?
i know the E320 CDI guys are able to buy a tune and have it coded out/disabled, but I don’t feel like spending the money on a tune for a winter beater E320.
In my E55 AMG I was able to remove secondary air and code it out with STAR with ease, so I’m assuming disabling EGR should be just as easy.

I hear there's a whole lot of programming that has to be done to code out an EGR on a gas engine. All the fuel maps have to be redone. In the gas engines, the EGR isn't the problem that it is on the diesel engines. I'd just leave it. If I had a diesel, I'd be deleting it, for sure, but I'm in Canada, and I can do those kinds of things without the EPA pounding on my door.
