Had the EGR fault code pop up on the insignia and finally got round to having a look at it. Tried running a can of wynns EGR cleaner through the inlet at idle then reconnected the pipe to find that my dpf was now blocked. Took her for a spin keeping the revs at about 3k and that seems to have sorted the dpf message but will have to clear the codes at work and see if the EGR issue is fixed. Anyone else had EGR issues and how did you fix them?

Also if I ditched the EGR pipe blanked off the EGR ports would the ECU spit its dummy out?
