I really appreciate your help on this as I've never owned a diesel. The mechanic at this dealer seems quite knowlegeable about diesels and the unique CRD. He seems to think the EGR is bad and that it is not allowing flow so I'm assuming it has failed in the closed position. From what I have read on this forum if it failed in the open position we would be getting some poor running conditions which we have not. So if it is closed how can I verify for sure and if it is closed will the SEGR mod. solve my problems? Also he mentioned the EGR cooler may be clogged but would not know unitl he removed the EGR to be able to inspect the cooler. With the SEGR mod. I assume the cooler is no longer relevant. Is this true? I'm just trying to figure this all out because I may be getting on your list for one of these SEGR's. Also how involved is the install for a pre-built SEGR. I'm pretty mechanically inclined but really have no electronics experience. One last thing with the SEGR install will I be able to unplug the ORM without getting a CEN light?

You've pretty much summed up the issue. If you are running well, most likely the EGR is closed, but you can guarantee that by installing a thin plate in place of the gasket where the exhaust plumbs into the EGR. All the SEGR is going to do for you is electrically disconnect the EGR valve from the ECM, and substitute a dummy in it's it's place so you won't get a check engine light (CEL). With the SEGR you need the MAF sensor (the "ORM") plugged in and operational. And yes, with the EGR off, the cooler is irrelevant.

That sums up what the SEGR does ... fools the ECM that the EGR is still operational so you get the benefit of no EGR and the benefit of the CEL for when something else goes wrong.

Sorry for the hijack but this information may be helpful for someone else who may be considering this purchase and isn't quite sure of everything it addresses. I searched all the other posts and was still confused. This really cleared things up for me. Regardless I know where you're coming from as the original intent of the post was for placing orders. Thanks everyone for your help.

Can I still get in on one of these SEGR kits? My Fiance' and I will confir tonight over our options. Let me know if there's still room so we know if the SEGR is one of our options. If this Jeep is going to turn into a nickel and dime affair we may decide to get rid of it. The CEL came on again today, after being reset Monday, so the EGR is definately malfunctioning. If we don't unload it I'll be in for one pre-assembled unit if I can still get in on the list.

If there aren't kits to fill current orders, I've ordered a few extra - you can have one of mine.

Thanks much. I think if we are going to keep it then the SEGR is a must. I'll let you know soon. Thanks again.

Did something get copied wrong? AltE and I disappeared from the list. He was 15, I was 16, both of us had "built" orders.

Hey Fellas,

Everything but 2 components have come in. They are back ordered 7-10 days out. I still have to divide everything up into kits, but have been working out of town for the last few weeks. My wife says I'd better stick around or she might toss all the packages that are sitting around. Any way I will get the payment info out to everyone by the end of the week. I have ordered enough stuff for about 10-15 extra kits, depending on how many guys from the Jeep Forum want in, so if you want one signup to ensure you get one.

The engine oil must stay cleaner once the EGR is closed for good ???

Do we pay by Paypal ?

LocoCRD will be contacting everyone for payment. A money order is preferable; Paypal charges a significant percentage of the total, and LocoCRD will back-charge that.

Hello All
Ive been following this forum a while. Our Jeep is finally past warranty and the girl says OK!. I see i'm getting close to the end of the list. If components come up short i'd be able to find my own. The box,plugs,and PCB are really what i'm after. Thanx

p.s.: EHM, ORM, 25mpg, crispy puck
