I had Disco_Mikey blank the EGR valves on mine a few weeks back and I can feel a real difference to the car. I had no faults showing either. Blanking seems to have cut out that few seconds hesitation I used to get between slowing down and then entering traffic at a roundabout. A job well worth doing in my opinion. 2010 RRS TDV6 3.0 Autobiography - Stornoway Grey

Same here' defiantly seems to drive better and it does seem to be more responsive at low speed.

The BAS fix has been in the pipeline for quite a while now. Is he actually about to release it or is it "coming soon"?

I reckon my EGRs are causing a problem - the motor can be a bit lethargic at times. I also want to get a mega flush done on my gearbox but it looks like I'll need to travel to Bristol to get it done. Can't find anywhere near to Oxford/Banbury/Northampton that does it - a number of places mention it but actually they just do a double flush. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

My EGRs must of been starting to pack up. It did feel a little lazy at times. But seems better now! |
