The code problem is related to the EGR valve but not necessarily the valve itself. There is a high input in valve position sensor that can be the sensor ---wiring short to positive and ECM. Check the connections for moisture and are not shorting out. Check that the wiring is not touching any hot parts of the motor and has burnt through. Im thinking of getting an insignia estate for running around in, the petrols seem to be a fir bit more than a diesel and i had a fair bit of hassle with an old astra and its egr valve clogging up which id like to avoid again.
