Car was running well finally and then just died at a stop light.

We recently replaced quite a few components, other posts in profile. Fuel pumps are good, EGR replaced due to other being stuck open.

From my mechanic.

The flap on the exhaust is that’s good

Discontinued the def system from the turbo as you can see lots smoke coming out. Like it’s dumping to much fuel and won’t start

But if I disconnect the front pipe from the egr it starts.

Something maybe blocking the exhaust

Don’t know if it’s the turbo or where the pipe from the egr connoto on the back of the engine????

Any ideas?

Oh and no codes...

Original post linked.

What has changed/same since last post:

- Hard start every morning

- P0299 is triggered when hard acceleration (getting on highway and flooring at light), also went away after I turned off and turned back on.

- Have not had p13d6 codes come back.

What we checked since last post:

- Actuator and N75 checked with VCDS.

- Smoke test, no leaks seen.

- Metal rod connecting to actuator is not stuck and goes up and down freely.

Ideas?
