I suspect the garage may be correct that its the EGR valve at fault though - although its definitely worth doing a visual inspection of the vacuum pipes etc

I also noticed egr blanking plate on it must be on there over 5 years because I never put it on... Also the actuator connected to the side of egr should that move when I start engine it's does nothing.
