Darkside Audi B9 / C7 & VW Amarok 3.0 TDI V6 EGR Blanking Kit - EGR-Only or EGR & Cooler Delete Options
EGR Cooler Blanking Kit for Audi B9 / C7 Platform and VW Amarok 3.0 TDI V6 engines
This complete kit allows removal and blanking of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve and cooler on Audi and Volkswagen vehicles fitted with the 3.0 TDI V6 engine. Removing the EGR reduces intake contamination, improves engine efficiency, and eliminates common failure points in the EGR cooling system.
SCOPE OF DELIVERY EGR DELETE:
- 2x EGR blanking plate
- 1x EGR Gasket
SCOPE OF DELIVERY EGR & COOLER DELERE:
- 2x EGR blanking plate
- 1x EGR Gasket
- 2x Aluminium hose connector (Cooler Delete Only)
- 2x Silicone hose (Cooler Delete Only)
- 4x Jubilee Clamps (Cooler Delete Only)
The plate is supplied individually. It does not include coolant bypass components or replace the complete EGR valve and cooler assembly.
Complete the modification with ECU tuning
The plate handles the physical blanking, while the required ECU calibration addresses EGR operation and monitoring. Installing a plate without suitable calibration can trigger EGR-related fault codes, an engine warning light or limp mode.
If your vehicle still needs this calibration, select the mail-in ECU tuning option above when ordering. This service requires you to send your engine ECU to us. Customers who already have suitable EGR calibration can purchase the plate on its own.
For installation and tuning at our Sunshine Coast workshop, submit an online tuning enquiry with your vehicle details.
Intake cleaning alongside the installation
Blanking the EGR passage does not remove soot and carbon already deposited in the intake manifold. Where deposits are restricting airflow, cleaning the intake can address that existing buildup.
Euro Car Electronics offers intake manifold cleaning, with ultrasonic cleaning available for suitable removed components. Request an intake cleaning assessment to arrange this alongside the work.
Installation and ECU tuning are not included in the plate price. The mail-in ECU tuning service is charged separately when selected.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need ECU tuning with this EGR blanking plate?
Yes. Suitable EGR calibration is required to complete the modification. If this has already been carried out, you can order the plate alone. Otherwise, add the mail-in ECU tuning service or arrange workshop installation and tuning through our online form.
How does the mail-in ECU tuning option work?
Select the ECU tuning option when ordering, then complete our online tuning form with your order number and vehicle details to arrange sending your engine ECU to us. This is a service performed on your supplied ECU.
Will it remove existing carbon from the intake?
No. Existing deposits remain after installation. Intake manifold cleaning is a separate service and can be arranged where required.
Please Note: Once the valve is either removed or blanked off the vehicle's ECU will no longer get a signal from the EGR Valve causing the emissions workshop light to appear on the dash board. We can remove this by reprogramming the EGR software on the ECU.
Please Note: Euro Car Upgrades accepts no responsibility for the use of this part on the public roads where removal of emission controls is prohibited. It is the owners responsibility to ensure they comply with rules and laws relating to their home country.
