Okay so i dont know much about this but ive been offerd a corsa sport 1.6 it looks great but the only fault he names is that at 2500rpm the engine management light comes on due to the egr being blanked? it has a vx inlet aswel. Can anyone shed any light into this for me?

mine does it if i coast from 70+ to 50 on the motorway, doesn't cause any problems and goes off when i switch the ignition off and on.

Id flash the codes to make sure it is the EGR but even if it's not, it's not a big deal.

If he's blanked it, he should have offset it so the plunger inside can still move. If he's just whacked the blanking plate under the egr it will flag a code.
