scottandcoops Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Does anybody else same trouble as me pulling out at a junction or roundabout in first gear is like seeing your life flash before never known such a slow car. Every time I do it I nearly have to change my pants. Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Yeah, they're all the same. The only fix is a remap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the EGR blanked and deleted at a separate time and I thought this made more of a difference tbh, but maybe the map was also updated at that point.

It is the standard EGR mapping that's the main issue imo, you can watch it open on live data just as you pull away which causes the dead spot. You can overcome it by pulling away at full throttle but that's not really appropriate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read that 1.6 TDCi does not like the EGR blanked off, it can cause excess back pressure that can kill the turbo. Just stick to a remap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stick to a remap It's blocked DPFs that cause back-pressure against the turbo. Blanking the EGR triggers the EML and limp until it's mapped out on these, it doesn't cause any mechanical issues though. It is of course an MOT fail now though, so not recommended.
