hi all took my missis's car to the local garage today after the ecu light came on, it showed
Linear egr position... p1405 p0110
intake air temp sensor high voltage
its mk4 astra 1.6 16v x16xel
should i just replace the intake sensor and is the egr problem the egr itself?

if its anything like the x18xe1 i would replace the intake sensor and clean the egr out with carb cleaner.reset the codes by leaving the battery off for 1 hour and go from there

egr is a pig to get to if its the same as the x16xe but if its like the x18's then its easy as pie.
would just clean the egr but bear in mind it might be fooked so have the funds to get another

EGR is an easy job on these and its a common problem, forever going wrong. You can either replace it or buy a blanking plate and blank it off.
