to get to the egr valve u have to remove battery and tay if removable then push the water bottle over wher the battery was and remove the loom runnin around that area the if u look under the inlet manifold u can just see it. its a bit of a fiddlie job but easy enough to do, while ur there u mite as well remove idle control valve n give it a clean just to make sure. | |

mines having the same problem.. iv taken it to the local garage and they checked it over completely. there was nothing wrong with it apart from a slightly split vacuum pipe which they repaired. when they plugged it into the computer the only fault it came up with was engine managment, but it didnt specifically say what the problem was. therefore the garage said they couldn't fix it. so basically i have to take it to a vauxhall garage. | |

could be a leaky inlet manifold gasket or split vacuum pipe | |

Find out what eml codes are stored, and check for air leaks around the throttle rubber sealing ring for starters. | |
