Hi all,
I want to blank my EGR, but realise I need to keep the pipes in situ for MOT reasons.
Will the thicker blanking plates fit between the valve and pipes using the existing nut/screws ?
Or can you just fit a thinner shim instead
Is shims are available then does anyone know who does them
Thanks 2005 D3 SE Auto, zermatt silver
Gearbox flush by terrain vehicles
V8 brake upgrade
Will always ask silly questions
