EML - need help

Any help on the topic below would be much appreciated:

A few days ago I was driving home from work (motorway) and the EML came on. First thought...S*it.
Did not notice any difference in the performance of the engine nor any strange noises, so decided to carry on.

When got home switched off the car and switched it back on... light was still on!

After a couple of hours went out again and decided to reset the mpg stats. After a couple of minutes the light switched off!

The only thing that was changed in the car recently was the restricted EGR gasket (3 weeks ago) but have never had the EML before.

When the EML came on I had been driving slowly for about 18 miles (due to the bad weather). Would you think this triggered the ECU to think that the flow of recirculated gases was not enough?

Has any one had this experience before?

PS: car is an FR TDI 50K miles

Cheers
