just a quick question. i have a 2001 golf tdi and was wondering if i can pass inspection with my EGR removed (it is throwing a code too if that matters )

i still have the functional EGR but i just want to have to avoid riding with a rejection sticker on my car (still gotta go to work)

any help is greatly appreciated!

thanks,

Adam

 

get it fixed / thread

 

if its throwing a code then it definitely wont pass.

 

CEL? It'll pass.

 

pretty sure it'll pass. I dont think they really check the engine like that do they?

 

None of the inspectors we've ever had failed anything for one. I mean, they go through shit and rec replacement of any worn parts.

 

pm me with more details

 

its not exactly "broken"

its exactly how i want it to be. Remove EGR put a straightpipe on and it eliminates me from ever having to clean soot out of the intake manifold. which is a pain in the ass.

i hear they do a visual inspection, but i dont think they see alot of TDis so i figured they might not notice the shiny pipe in there (90% is hidden with the engine cover regardless)

pm sent

 

Got ya! my best friend is a VSI inspector. I will send him a text and pm what he said

 

thanks
