  • New family member, Ken from Bristol.

    Hello all T4s.

    I've had my van a couple of months now, she's a 1997 2.5 tdi on 121000. She's spent most of her time on the beach so has a few rust issues.
    She also likes to smoke when I give her some revs so I'm looking for advice to try and reduce the smoke.
    I hear blanking the egr valve will help and I would like to do this myself so any advice would be welcomed.

    I'm trying to upload a picture but seem to be stuck on that too?

        Hi Ken, welcome on board. As S49 mentioned, you can get the kits from the internet. Pretty straight forward mate. Keep us updated.

                      Let me guess - is it a 88 brake AJT engine on standard injectors?

                              Don’t they all smoke when first started, mine does but soon clears.
