Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

    Tiguan still has an EGR

    I assumed that SCR would mean there was no need for an EGR but that's not right.
    So EGR/cooler valve issues, including access, will remain, it seems.
    The current brochure specs don't mention an emissions standard at all either, which seems odd to me

    It doesn't have to mention that. I don't know any car combustion engine from 1980 without the EGR.

      Is it needed for blowby gasses, combustion temperature control or both?
      I thought the DEF did the job of NOx reduction.
      Can we expect the same lifespan from the EGR/cooler valve and associated costs?.
