    Today I decided to see if taking the Vac pipe off the EGR valve on the right side of the engine facing it would do any good, I cut the pipe pushed a suitable diameter piece of metal rod up the pipe and pushed the other bit of pipe over the end so effectively blocking the pipe, pushed the Vac pipe back on the EGR valve looks like it should, and tried it, had to do a 60 mile motorway drive all I can say is great, no EML and the car responded a lot crisper, checked as far as I could that the EGR was actually closed with a torch seems to be.
