EGR Delete & Blanking in Addlestone
The EGR valve is a soot magnet, and when it jams the whole engine suffers β rough running, poor economy and limp mode. An EGR delete in Addlestone clears the fault at the root, mobile and same-day.
The trouble with EGR valves
Addlestone sits comfortably inside our core patch. We reach it via M25 junction 11 and the A317, cover every KT15 address, and are frequently just up the road in Weybridge β so waiting days for an appointment is rare.
The EGR valve recirculates exhaust gas back into the intake to lower combustion temperatures. Over time that soot-laden gas gums up the valve and the intake, so the valve sticks β and a stuck EGR means rough idling, hesitation, black smoke, poor economy and, often, limp mode with a warning light.
An EGR delete maps the valve out of the engine’s software and blanks off the recirculation path, so no more soot is fed back into the intake. The rough running clears, the light goes out, and the fault doesn’t return.
We do it at your home or workplace in Addlestone whether you’re right in the centre or out towards Weybridge, usually within the hour, with a fixed price agreed before we start.
A sooted EGR rarely travels alone β it clogs the intake and piles extra load on the DPF too, which is why so many Addlestone drivers have us deal with both in the same visit.
While we’re with you, we can often handle more than one job in a single visit β we also offer DPF removal, AdBlue delete and ECU remapping in Addlestone.

EGR Delete in Addlestone β your questions answered
Is it better to clean, replace or delete the EGR?
Cleaning is a temporary fix β the valve sooties up again β and a new valve just resets the same clock. Deleting the valve in software and blanking it off stops the soot path for good, which is why most people choose it.
How long does it take and do you come to me?
It’s mobile, carried out at your address anywhere in Addlestone, and usually done within the hour.
How much does it cost?
It’s a fixed price agreed before we start, and usually far less than repeated cleaning or a new valve fitted by a dealer. Call with your registration for a quote.
What are the signs of a faulty EGR valve?
Rough or lumpy idling, hesitation when you accelerate, black smoke, poor economy and often limp mode with a warning light. Because the valve feeds soot back into the intake, symptoms tend to get worse over time.
Where do you carry out the work in Addlestone?
