Just got a cracked EGR cooler and been told its $1700 plus just for parts
I can get an EGR delete kit for about $250.
But will need to reflash the ecu to get rid of the light
Worth doing or not ?
Any advice appreciated

This is what I have just ordered
Just need to find someone in Adelaide to reflash the ECU to remove the error code when its fitted.

I thought that there problems with the engine manifold cracking fairly well documented on here , not the EGR might be worth double checking . cracked exhaust manifold

Already replaced the manifold last year with the Darkside replacement cast one

Yes to be honest as much as I enjoy this van I dont know if I would buy another.
My T4 petrol manual never had the problems I have had with this one.
I know theres a difference between manual petrol and the diesel auto but its as though they are built to only last a few years???

Just been advised my delete kit has arrived
Thats not bad as I ordered it at 7.00pm on the 18th from England.
I cant get stuff that quick from Melbourne ?
