Tried that, no difference!

Leaky or stuck? I'm going to blank it off to see if it makes a difference if I get time this weekend. If the EGR is sticky then no more worries but if the EGR cooler is leaking coolant then that's bad. I don't think it's steam coming out the tailpipe though, more white, stinky smoke.
I've read that the glow plugs are under the EGR cooler. Would it be easier to remove them on a ramp?
