EGR Delete in Great Bookham — Cure Rough Running and Limp Mode
Mobile EGR delete and blanking across Great Bookham. We map the valve out of the engine software and block off the soot path, so the faults stop coming back for good.
What the EGR valve does — and why it fails
Great Bookham work is a regular fixture in our diary. As a village with quick access from the A246, it’s an easy run for our technicians — and with Leatherhead and Dorking minutes away, we’re often in the neighbourhood already.
EGR problems are relentless: clean the valve and the underlying design still feeds soot back into the intake, so it clogs again. Replacing it with a pricey new valve only resets the clock. Deleting and blanking it off stops the cycle for good.
We recalibrate the software so the engine ignores the valve entirely, then fit a blanking plate to seal the soot path. The result is cleaner running, a clear dashboard and no more EGR-related limp mode.
It’s a mobile job across Great Bookham across all KT23 addresses, done in around an hour, and your original file is saved first so it can be reversed if ever needed.
If you’ve already replaced an EGR valve once and it’s playing up again, you’ve felt the problem first-hand: new valves clog just like old ones. Blanking it off is the end of that story.
Many customers book us for more than one thing at once: we also provide DPF removal, AdBlue delete and ECU remapping across Great Bookham.

EGR Delete in Great Bookham — your questions answered
Will an EGR delete cure the rough running and limp mode?
Yes. Once the valve is mapped out and blanked, the rough running and hesitation clear, the warning light goes out and the limp mode stops.
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.
Is it better to clean, replace or delete the EGR?
Cleaning is a temporary fix — the valve sooties up again — 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.
Can it be reversed?
Yes — your original software is archived first, so it can be put back at any time.
