Do the paper clip test or diagnostic check to see what the fault code is. We will be able to help you after we know this.

Is the EGR the bit on the side of the throttle body inside the bit that houses it?

either the egr is fucked, you've knocked off one of the vacuum hoses for aircon if you have it, (small green and yellow ones near the battery) or you've knocked the connection
