BMW 1 Series EGR problems and delete
We look at 1 Series EGR faults on your driveway or at work, so the car stays where it is. Most visits take 60 to 90 minutes, and same-day help is often available.
How a visit for your 1 Series works
Send the registration
Tell us whether it's a 118d or 120d and what it's doing.
Pick a time and place
Home or work, wherever it's parked safely.
Diagnosis
The codes and live EGR data are read for £100 + VAT.
The fix
The £220 + VAT delete can be done there and then, or you get a clear note of the part a garage should fit.
About the 1 Series EGR delete
BMW's N47 diesel appears in many BMW and MINI models and is a common EGR delete candidate. A sticking valve brings a rough idle, hesitation and sometimes limp mode.
The delete switches the EGR off in the ECU and clears the codes. We don't clean EGR valves.
At home or at work
We need the car, its keys and a safe place to park, such as your driveway or a work car park with the site's permission.
Why book SGR
Most visits take 60 to 90 minutes, same-day slots are often free for a warning light, and we're insured to £2 million.
Reviews
Can you carry out the 1 Series EGR delete at my workplace?
Yes, if the car is parked safely and your workplace agrees.
What do you check on the 1 Series before the delete?
The stored codes and live EGR data, to be sure the valve is at fault rather than a sensor or wiring.
What do you need from me to book the 1 Series?
The registration, the symptoms and where the car will be, plus any codes you've already had read.
Is a 118d or 120d EGR delete road legal?
No. It's carried out for off-road and export use only, as our EGR delete legality guide explains.
