Cool. Would you mind telling the process you went through to delete.thanksJust deleted and I must say the car runs way better. Also nice knowing some electronics that could fail are gone.
I would do the timing belt job 10 times over before doing this but the results are worth it all. Removing the DPF/EGR was an absolute nightmare without a lift. 10/10 don't recommend doing without a lift but it can be done. I had roughly 8-10 hours in it. The biggest issues I encountered were coolant lines, house clamps were positioned towards the top when there is no access to them. I had to cut a couple off. I found a kit that is made by darkside but used the rawtech instructions. Delete kit was supplied by tditunes.com but do not recommend them not just because the lack of communication but because they marked the price up on the parts. Malone stage 2 tune. I plan on taking it to a local exhaust shop and getting them to do the bends and delete the factory muffler. 2015 CVCA.Cool. Would you mind telling the process you went through to delete.thanks
Also, is the car letting out smoke now?
My guess is that being on the outside of the TB cover provides the most convenient "coolest" location in the engine bay for those metal pipes. They created that routing with the intermediate metal hoses for a reason. I'm guessing it's to provide some amount of sinking for the exhaust heat before it hits the sensors. That all goes out the window if the sensor becomes an active escape path for the exhaust.Silly that VAG puts stuff like this in the way of the timing cover. They could have designed it better, although having just replaced a CVCA engine (M&P belt job by the owner... didn't go well), I can say that engine has a mind boggling overcomplicated cooling system. It is quite ridiculous actually.
Dealer will fix.This exact thing happed to me this weekend. Finished up the timing belt job and all was well, first regen its throwing the P2456 code. I never touched the stuff in the little pouch, just disconnected the lines down by the front of the cover, but I bet that was enough to break it. Guess its off the dealer and see if they will fix it under warranty. 2015 Jetta with 115K
I have this issue with the melted sensors and connectors. Could you provide the sensors and pigtails you got from Amazon? The local dealership could not help me out with the sensors and connectors.Had the same thing happen. I'm assuming one of the sensors broke while doing the timing belt job allowing hot gasses during Regen and melting every thing. Found 2 new sensors and two pigtails on Amazon for roughly 90$ problem fixed.
