im getting a fault that causes the em light to come on. did a test and it showed code number 0400. looking on topbuzz it said it was the 'Exhaust gas circulation valve'. i initially thought the egr valve but that is a different fault code. anyone know?

see below:

0400 Exhaust gas circulation valve
0403 Exhaust Gas Re-circulation (EGR) valve

its a corsa 1.6 16v x16xe btw.

I suspect it's a typo on the web site - I just had a quick look on EPC and it only talks of exhaust gas re-circulation, not exhaust gas circulation.
