Dan,if you cannot get the two bolts undone on the ex manifold,send me a pm as i know another way of blanking the EGR valve off.

Thank you, I will let you know how I get on
ok,but be careful when trying to undo the two allen head bolts,they are made of ruddy cheese.

Is it worth just going for your other way instead then?

no,just use good quality tools and use some plus gas on the bolts,not wd40 though,that is not an easing fluid.spray it on a day before you try undoing the bolts and spray it a few times as well.

good luck,some times the bolts come out easy,sometimes they don't,so use good quality easing fluid.

I paid £28 for mine at Paddock. It has the ridge on the inlet as mentioned and has worked well.
I took the opportunity of fitting silicone hoses at the same time as the old ones looked like they were 10 year old originals and might be starting to de-laminate internally. I got them from Derby Performance Hose for £72 including some fancy stainless clips. I had to cut a bit off the one that fits to the turbo.
Paddock do the hoses for about £60 but without the fancy clips - you still have to trim one of them though.
