You're right. Light is on. P1402 and P1409. When I had a 300tdi Disco I removed egr and its ecu. Do You think it should be possible to convert puma engine into an engine without electronics? I'm sorry for the stupid question. Vinicio |

There is soon to be released a complete EGR replacement blank solution including a software patch for the Puma Tdci. There is an EGR replacement blank available just now but without a software patch meaning that the MIL lamp will still illuminate! Should be available soon

Yes, ive been looking deeper and i see what they are doing now Looks a very nice bit of kit they are making to be honest,
I just blanked the EGR at both sides and disconnected the plug but left the valve in place, though their option does look very neat and tidy. Pete |

I doubt you would be able to make any modern engine run without electronics, you might be able to remove odd elements - at the expense of something. I know you dont need to worry about legislation but it certainly wouldnt comply I dont think (personally) electronics are anything to be "scared of" in fact i think they add value when out in the sticks. Its the same as any vehicle where is life and death - you take the equipment required to resolve the problem...in an engine with electronics you just add some electronic bits, no different to throwing in a gasket etc. An advantage to electronics is they help you protect the engine before you become deeply screwed!

Simple question for You: what engine do You prefer old 300 tdi (I had one without egr and cat) or new, fully digitalized, "politicaly correct" and "ecological" puma? I think that "modern engine" is only a fraud!!! Ask Yourself how much engine efficiency did increase since 1990? Ask Yourself for how many days a cat works properly on a new car! Ask Yourself if We really need an EGR to reduce NOx in our car and if NOx pollution is really due to car engine instead of industrial emission! It's only my opinion, don't be afraid to disagree with me Ciao Vinicio |
