Title: EML on GTTdi
Post by: will130787 on September 07, 2011, 11:45:04 am: Hi guys, I have an Engine Management Light on at the moment. The display says 'Emissions Workshop!'. The first thing I thought was DPF however i'm not sure it has one being 2004, next EGR? Is the only way to get a Diag reading to go to VW?

Your dealer could read the fault code, but I'm sure a lindly member with VCDS will oblige. If the code is P0401 then it is the EGR, an option would be to fit a delete pipe, they are only £70.

Thats what I was thinking, no DPF. Is there any benefit of the delete pipe? They appear to be £75 for a new valve.....

Anyone roughly around Reading that could read this for me?

One of the most infuriating things about this forum.......when you send a PM you have to physically check the box so the sent message appears in your outbox!! :mad:
