I have euro 4 without DPF.

Egr blank is in, when plugged in it threw an error.. Unplugged it and error is gone.

4 weeks and 1 mot later and still no error messages.

Only just past the mot on emissions though haha!

I think mine is the same. Blanking it off completely produces an error message but a blank with a few small holes stays error free for months at a time - though eventually needs soot cleaning out of the holes.

Can't honestly say that the partial blanking has made a huge difference to mpg though.
