Renault Trafic EGR problems and delete
We diagnose Trafic EGR faults at the yard, the depot or outside your house, so the van isn't stuck at a garage. Most visits take 60 to 90 minutes, and a new warning light can often be looked at the same day.
How a visit for your Trafic works
Send the registration
Tell us whether it's a 1.6 or 2.0, what the van is doing and where it's parked.
We fit around the van
An early visit before it goes out, or once it's back at the yard.
Diagnosis
The codes and live EGR data are read for £100 + VAT, so you know if it's the valve, the cooler, a sensor or the wiring.
The fix
The £220 + VAT delete can be done on the spot, or you get a clear note of the part a garage needs to fit.
About the Trafic EGR delete
Vans that idle on site and stop and start all day are hard on EGR valves. Soot and oil vapour build up on the valve until it sticks, leading to rough running, black smoke and limp mode. If your Trafic has an EGR cooler fault, coolant loss or white smoke can be part of the picture.
The delete switches the EGR off in the ECU and clears its codes. We don't clean EGR valves.
Trafic vans and fleets
If several Trafics, or a mix of vans, are showing EGR or DPF faults, we can work through more than one on a single visit to the yard where time allows. That saves the vans travelling anywhere.
Fleet operators with regular work can open a trade account, and other vans in the fleet, from Transits to Vivaros, are covered too.
Why book SGR
An EGR fault can put a van in limp mode at the worst time. We can often attend the same day for a warning light, most jobs take 60 to 90 minutes, and £2 million of insurance covers the work.
Reviews
Can you carry out the Trafic EGR delete at our depot?
Yes, the depot is often the best place. We just need the van parked safely.
What do you check on the Trafic before the delete?
The stored codes and live EGR readings, plus a look at whether the cooler or a sensor is involved. That way, the delete or the new part is aimed at the real fault.
Can you do several Trafics in one visit?
Often, yes. Let us know how many vans and what each is showing, and we'll plan enough time.
What do you need from me to book the Trafic?
The registration, the symptoms and any codes already read, plus where the van will be and when. We'll confirm the price and the slot.
Can a Trafic with the EGR deleted go back out on the road?
No. We only carry out the delete on Trafics used off-road or going for export, and our guide on whether an EGR delete is legal explains the rules.
Book a visit for your Trafic
Tell us the registration and where the Trafic is kept, and we'll set up a visit. Other Renault models are on our Renault EGR page, and the same van can be booked for Trafic DPF cleaning or Trafic remapping.
