2014 TIGUAN TDi EGR woes
Hi,
Just wondering if anyone out there has had this similar problem or ideas as to what it may be.
My daughters 2014 TIGUAN TDi Pacific recently had EGR woes and the EGR was replaced at great cost. Before you ask it was non genuine part but it appeared to be brand spanking new and the mechanic commented that apart from not being in a VW parts box he would not have known any different. After fitment the action of the EGR was checked and all was good and it was recalibrated.
Since the replacement we have had an interesting problem arise and I cannot and the mechanic cannot understand what the hell is happening. Everything is fine for some time but as the fuel gauge reaches HALF the EGR light comes on and stays on. She might drive like this for another 100- 200K or one to two days (we are in Southern Highlands south of Sydney). She then fills the car up, starts the car and the EGR light disappears. This wasn't a fluke and has happened continuously since the EGR was fitted about 3-4 weeks ago. Half a tank- light ON ---> fill the tank - Light OFF.
Does anyone have ANY thoughts on this as I can't see how they would be related but obviously they appear to be.
