not sure what happened the but my mpg computer showed a noticable decrease compared to usual, when i just unplugged the pipe. I may try it again at some point and see what happens possible bung it with a golf tee this time.
you can't just leave the pipe open you will loose vac' and suck crap into the rest of the system
i did plug the pipe but left it unattached to the valve, guess that won't actually be much better. I'll try it again at the w/e with a golf tee in the valve and then plug the vac pipe over it
I think 200 miles might be the point when they kick in, as that seems to be point when the EGR delete kits throw a CEL
Its not mileage its the conditions of running, short journeys made mine come on quicker. It will go out on its own but it will come back on. Long journeys made the light stay off longer

Mine only stayed on for 20mins or so, went back off on the way to the car wash. I've now sourced some hose clamps and popped one on, will be interesting to see if the CEL comes on now.
if you use a small nail head just larger than the pipe bore, push in head first then just leaving 1/16" sticking out push back on EGR stub, wish i had a quid for each time I explained
