Warning lamp and limp mode

Post by Geordie74 »

Hi ,
2010 1.6tdi. 88k .
Drove maybe 16 miles on Friday and the glow plug lamp started to flash and car went into limp mode (fine before hand) I stopped and turned off , resttarted and drove 3 miles to my girlfriend house and it was fine. Today I started it and drove maybe 5 miles before the lamp started to flash and again into limp mode. Got myself home in it , another 14 mile.
Plugged in code reader and it says p0403 exhaust recirculation circuit. (Egr valve)
I've done some googling and looks like common fault , now do I get it repaired or just go for a remap with egr delete ?
Anyone had the same problem . I'm in the north east.
