| My earlier 1.4 has the same engine and there is no EGR - I'd ignore the code as an issue if it doesn't come back and the engine is running well! |

Post: RE: Idleing
| Haynes shows idle adjustment screw and describes how to make adjustments - could be that the cold start has stuck in the 'cold' position.
