Got an x16xe, eml comes on now and again and the car runs lumpy, eml only seems to come on when the car is heated up and when u go up the revs, done the paper clip test and came back with egr fault, have been using the search feature on here an it seems 2 be a mixed results in regards to blanking the egr valve, ie blanking it off and leaving it connected, is it better 2 blank it off or just replace the egr with a new 1, i know these arent the easiest 2 get 2 so i dont want 2 be stripping more times than enuff 2 replace the egr valve

you will still get an eml if your blank it off
if i was on the motorway and coasted down from 70 it would come on. I had a mantzel though so it may have been down to that.
egr's arent cheap though. so i'd suggest taking yours off and giving it a clean with carb cleaner

Mine got the odd EML after it being blanked off, but the engine also had a few performance parts.

See it cuts out now once it's warmed up and driving at steady speed, I come 2 stop it cuts out, cheapest I can get a new egr is £81 so not 2 bad for a replacement if mine is done.
Need 2 get the Hayes manual out and start stripping

Mines having the same issue eml comes on and car splutters then when I come to a stop the car will cut out ice changed the egr,crank sensor,icv, and redone the wire because it's coming up with fuel injection circuit or circuits on fault reader :/
