There is a very interesting video I saw on YouTube the other night showing how to delete the EGR and some other stuff , what amazed me was the amount of gunk that was blocking the EGR and the connected pipe . It was like 60% blocked no wonder the cars will die . It was on an older VW car but same principal never the less . Link here . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xn6jiEpADYg

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,

It would be tempting to delete the EGR, it can't be good for the engine long term.
Yes it may be illegal, but technically from what i gather we weren't meeting the Emissions anyway,
Add the fact, we don't have yearly inspections up here in QLD, i'm sure it gets done a fair bit.

Removing the DPF doesn't go well the EPA in NSW, I'm guessing and causing your DPF to fail by blocking the EGR is very expensive.
