EGR delete kit

[Peet]

Hi guys,

With reference to my previous post http://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/showthread.php?tid=11738 Hellas asked if it was corrosion that caused said holes, and suggested that I should get the EGR delete kit.

1. It looks like corrosion could have caused the holes.
2. I would be extremely greatfull if somebody could supply a name/telephone number/website in PTA or JHB area who could make/fabricate the EGR delete kit for me.

Thanking you in advance.

Hope this helps: (jacked from another thread)

She looks fantastic, just got mine , silver 2002 model 530d , hope to detail her soon as well, just something to look out for, change all the small vac tubes they get quite hard from the heat and age, not the kilometrage, I also took out the egr and ordered a blank egr valve casing from (hold yor breath!) Land Rover, the TD5 uses the same Egr valve, and they replace it with the blank usually only after the EGR valve gives problems.
One problem it can give and brake the motor is that the water can leak through the EGR and into the intake manifold, with bent conrods the result, I also took the intake manifold off and removed the swirl flaps and closed the small holes with self tappers, mail me if you need more info.
