The symptoms would be a leaky egr valve and as you have observed the valves are closed until the car warms up so I'd check the blanking plates again for any leaks. As you have a GAP IID tool you can buy the EGR delete software delete for not much money so you can rule this out. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

The EGR system on the 3.6 is pretty basic hence why people can physicaly blank them and the drive perfectly well without the ECU throwing a wobbly. I'd get them mapped out via your GAP tool anyway as you realy need to stop them operating to lower the risk of them breaking as was mentioned in the other thread. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

Many possible cause but all speculation until you have ruled out the EGR system. Others more knowlegable about the 3.6 engine will be able to offer better help from then on. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |
