looking at buying this car only it mentions something about the egr valve, in the advert the seller wrote the following:

"one thing i should mention is the engine management light does come on now and again now i have had this problem before and all it will need is the egr valve cleaning which when dirty or clogged up causes the fault in the management system to occur nothing serious"

is this a big deal an screw up the engine or we talking a minor problem thats quick an easy to sort?

any help peeps, cheers.
