Yeah as Vince said, flat blade screwdriver for the airbox pipe and either a 10mm spanner or a 1/4" 10mm socket on a T20 screwdriver (not 100% needed).
Dead easy todo, pull the air intake pipe off, unclip the relevant wiring off the top of the airbox, undo the pressure sensor on the right hand side of the airbox (or swing the airbox out the way and leave it on) undo the jubilee clip at the back of the airbox, pull off, pull the front of the airbox up, then move the whole lot to the left (peg underneath) pull it out.
Undo the 2 X 10mm nuts and 1 X 10mm bolt being careful not to drop the heatshield. Pull the EGR out - it'll either fall out or be an arse.

Took the valve out this morning, needed a little persuasion but not difficult. Didn't look so bad but gave it a clean anyway. Using a screwdriver the piston/disc moves out and in freely.
Have read somewhere on here that it is possible as a quick fix to turn the unit round and the roadside assistance boys do this. I can see how this would blank the exhaust pipe off but physically because of the mounting holes it only fits one way????????????

So just a temporary get you home bodge then. Thought I was missing something. Thanks.
Might carry the necessary tools in the car just in case I get stuck. Think it has been developing for a few weeks as the fuel consumption has dropped from 71.2 to 67.7 mpg.
