EGR Blanking 1.6d

Is this worth doing or is it easy enough to clean the EGR?

I'm looking at getting this one:

I have a Euro 3.

Theres mixed feelings about doing this. I tend to agree with it, as putting exhaust fumes back in the engine doesn't seem right to me. They look easy to fit, and its not a lot of money to try it out. If it does what it says, it could be worth it.
Others may give a different view point

If you take a look at the other topics about this you may get a good idea about it. I'm torn between it and tried it and converted back to the OEM set up after a few hours and some sound advice. Not to put you off as yours is a E3 then you should get away with not having any system lights on.

Its a 10min job to fit and worth giving it ago IMO.
