Glad to hear your happy with the modification. My wife drives our GLK as well. She really likes the comfort, safety and AWD. I like the fuel economy. The emissions sensors are the only downside of the car and have been problematic. My understating is MB now in Canada may replace emmisions components due to the problems. I am sure there are more posts on this in the forum (I haven't checked) but my purpose of this messaging was to see if you were happy with the prior tuning. Glad to hear your happy with it! Thanks again for the recommmendation. All the best! |
Hi there,
I'm not sure which sub forum should I inquire, but I have 2016 GLE 250d with Euro 4 emission, so there's no DPF or Adblue straight from Mercedes Benz factory; there's an EGR though. What's the benefit of closing off or blanking off the EGR or can I turn off the EGR without hardware modifications? Thanks |
If you have a Mass Airflow Sensor and you block off the EGR the system will complain that the measured intake doesn't agree with the expected intake.
The benefit is the engine doesn't have to breath in its own exhaust, so you don't get all those combustion byproducts gumming up the intake tract. |
J'aimerais bien récupérer le 2000$ de Mercedes pour le rappel. Pour ce faire, je dois remettre le tout a l'origine. Le problème est que le tuyau du dpf a été coupé pour récupérer le flange. Il me faudrait donc un autre dpf et je serai en mesure de réinstaller le tout. Si quelqu'un a ca, je serais acheteur.
|
J'ai ça. Est-ce que c'est une installation temporaire ou permanente.
|
Dans les faits, Je trouve ca ridicule de tout remettre en place pour que Mercedes les enlève de nouveau pour les remplacer. J'imagine que c'est pour refuser ceux qui ont modifier le système et économiser des $$. Est-ce que vous seriez prêt a me vendre ou échanger votre dpf? Le mien est d'origine mais a un des bout couper.
Merci |
Assuming you have the ecu tuned for your delete, you will also need to have it re-tuned to stock configuration to be eligible for the field measure and compensation. That's my understanding.
|
J'ai acheté un 2e ordinateur non modifié. Je garderai donc mon tuyau modifié ainsi que l'ordinateur modifié si un problème revenait. Je me pose également la question. Est-ce qu'il y en a beaucoup d'entre-vous qui ont été chercher le 2000$ en remettant tout le système à l'origine?
|
Interesting, I'm assuming the ecu that you purchased has been coded to your VIN?
|
Non, je pensais seulement changer l'ecu modifié par un non modifié. Selon vous, ca ne fonctionnera pas?
|
MB ECU's are coded with the vehicles VIN which needs to match the VIN that has been coded to the vehicle security features/system or the vehicle will not operate.
|
Ok, merci

10 year mark update
Hey guys, just want to give you guys a quick update. I still have the vehicle and it almost at 200 km :)
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...6a1fc2fd3b.jpg I still think it a half decent looking vehicle after almost 10 years. Hopefully this year I will have time to black out the rest of the chrome trims https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...89f62b94e6.jpg Almost 200k. Hopefully it will get to 300k without major issue https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...17e4d16309.jpg Still gets a very decent mileage. Recently Canada has a massive recall and settlement on the emission bs. I didn't brother to take the car back to complete the recall. Really don't want the dealership touch my vehicle, special there is nothing wrong with it. |
Thanks for the update. Mine has 203,000 miles (330,000 kms?) with all original emissions in place and no issues (touch wood), runs fabulous. California so deleting emissions equipment not an option.
|
Wow, 5,3l/100km, c'est vraiment bon. Moi en cette période hivernale, jamais en bas de 8l/100km en mixe.
|
Just for laughs because I watch Cop shows and movies a lot, Your question sounds quite narc/vice squad-like undercover pre-text!
|
HI glk fan, I am glad to see this results.
I live in Toronto and looking for somebody to delete everything and install the pipes? If somebody knows any good place, please let me know. I like your front grille - where did you get it from? |

I'm sticking with the software tune only, no real reason to chop off parts. In case I ever want/need to revert back to stock, it's just a 5 minute ECU read/write.
I did just empty my DEF tank though, drained probably 6 gallons of the stuff. Any bit of weight savings is a win in my book. |

If you had the recall done, that means you should have quite an extended warranty covering a LOT of items, including the DEF system.
Why not let the dealer (perhaps a different dealer?) attempt to fix it? |
My biggest issue after the recall is the millage is worse. Went from Aprox 6.5 to 8.6 L combined.

Here's the inside of a 2013 ML 350 Bluetec DPF. There are two distinct yet identical sections of filtration material, that suggests they have different functions.
I once read that the Mercedes DPF is a combined Diesel Particulate Filter and Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC). In systems that have a separate DPF and DOC, the DOC is the first in the stream followed by the DPF. According to that logic, could it be that the upstream section (right, flange side) is the DOC area, and the left the DPF section? If so, would it be worth preserving the DOC (to cut down on odor) while removing the DPF material only? https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...9cb33de9a5.jpg |
