Hey guys,
I got 2005 Passat B5.5 with 195k. I've deleted EGR about 3000 miles ago and it was probably 75% clogged. Only thing I haven't done yet is tune. So I do have check engine light on and that's okay for now, I'll be getting "stock" malone tune later. I've been noticing that I have more vibration from the engine at idle. Drives as it used to, no stalling or starting issues, just more vibration. it doesn't sound like rough idle, just vibration. Rig is new to me (about 10k) miles. When I bought it there was no noticeable blow by. You know, when unscrewing oil fill cap and just let it rest on there it was not bouncing. Now I've noticed that thing is just jumping violently all over. Would removing EGR add that more pressure? I had small oil leak before but now I'm dumping tons of oil. I had to change my valve cover gasket because it was seeping oil more. Would messing with EGR do that? Or is it just my luck that those issues came out at the same time as I removed EGR?
Besides getting rid of check engine light does egr delete tune do anything for the rig?
Thank guys
