EGR Blanking Kit – VW Transporter T5.1 & T6 2.0 TDI (CAA / CCH Engines)

This EGR blanking kit is designed for Volkswagen Transporter T5.1 and T6 models equipped with the 2.0 TDI CAA and CCH engine variants (excluding CFCA).

The kit blanks off the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve at both the turbocharger and inlet manifold, preventing exhaust gases from being recirculated back into the intake system.

What This Kit Does:

• Blanks the EGR valve at the turbocharger
• Blanks the EGR connection at the inlet manifold

Installation Notes:

• Blanking plates must be installed at the turbo and inlet manifold
• The turbo location requires a gasket (included where specified)
• The inlet manifold uses the factory rubber seal

Important:

After blanking the EGR system, the ECU will detect the absence of the EGR signal and may trigger an emissions workshop warning light. Software reprogramming of the ECU is required to correctly disable the EGR function and prevent fault codes.

Compatibility:

• Volkswagen Transporter T5.1 – 2009 to 2015 – 2.0 TDI CAA / CCH (Excluding CFCA)
• Volkswagen Transporter T6 – 2015 to 2019 – 2.0 TDI CAA / CCH (Excluding CFCA)

Scope of delivery:

• 2x Large Blanking Plates
• 1x Large EGR Gasket

Please confirm your VIN & engine code before ordering.

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.
