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.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Try Zadtec Performance in Brookvale, Sydney. They are distributors for Celtic Tuning (a UK based tuning company) and can likely sort you out with your tuning needs. Not sure if your car has a DPF, but if it does - then usually you need to delete both DPF and EGR at the same time.....speaking from experience......I tried to do an EGR delete on my Audi SQ5 and the DPF stopped doing regens.

        Darkside Developments in the UK would have an EGR blanking kit. Ive ordered some parts from them over the past few years and they deliver quickly.

        Doubt you will find an emulator locally as they really aren't popular to use outside of Europe. Link below to one from Poland.

          Thanks heaps. I had found the one from Poland, but a bit of a job getting it to Aust. Really wanted to hear from people with experience on if they are worth it before I jump in.
          Has any one had experience with this emulator and what happens to DPF. Does it need heat from EGR to work properly or will blanking off EGR destroy DPF even with emulator in?

            Being a 2011 and the older models being not quite as 'smart' as newer cars, you might be able to get away with using an emulator for the EGR and not effecting the DPF operation.........but in my experience (on a 2015 model car) I was not able to delte the EGR without also doing the DPF. It caused a whole world of pain, and my DPF stopped doing its regular regens (which it does every 400-500km usually) and totally clogged the DPF and the car went into full blown limp mode. I had to physically remove the DPF and clean all the soot out, then had to get the cars ECU retuned to reverse the previous attempt to map out the EGR.

            Put it this way, no one sells an EGR emulator for my car/engine so thats probably because it wont work on my car/engine. But if they sell them for your car/engine then fair chance it should work. Worth a try anyway. Im sure that shop in Poland will post to Australia - might just cost you $50-80 for the priviledge.

              Thanks heaps. I have tried to purchase through their ebay store, but can't get shipped to Aus. I have emailed Tafmet to see if I can deal direct.

                AEA... did you get your EGR sorted? I have just got a 2012 4motion Multivan and am trying to work out a course of action.
