Right..sun was shining and went EuroCP. They ripped me off and charged me �205 but didn't care as i had to get the part in today as otherwise, I'd never do it.
Firstly i disconnected the battery....
The part to change:
Got the part:
Got the part off. Three screws and the hose clip. Also removed the air intake for the air filter and undid the oil dipstick to get better access. To get to the third screw at the back of the IMF, i had to get my aunt to hold down the thick pipe so i could undo it...
Here's the Old Part (really dirty considering a cleaned it a few weeks ago!):
Got the New part in (it came with the rubber seals so didn't have to buy anthing else...thats one of the reasosn i left the EGR valve in as i didn;t want to waste precious pennies on seals! (Im starting Uni Next month!)
There's a seal on the thick black pipe, i changed this when i cleaned it out so didn't see the point of changing it again (�3.30 from Audi - whata rip!).
The thick pipe just pushes in. You line up the bits that stick out and push it in and then clip it into position. On my part, the clip doesn't come out but pulls about a cm and then you push it back in when the seals in place.
Changed the F8 Fuse (The red one behind the big relay thing that says 458) - 10amp: (also connected the battery after changing the fuse)
Put all the other bits back on....Took it for a whiz and all the lights went off that came up when i put the battery back on (traction control, steering etc.) went off
Came back and Vagcomed it.
The Fault codes still came up:

Bingo
Sall sorted out and as for the radio fault code, thats there because i got my aftermarket Alpine in it!
There was also the bulb in the boot which had blown so changed that too..That fault registered on VAGCOM too but once bulb changed and code erased..taht was gone too..
My cars running sweet again with no yellow engine management light (MA). No rough idleing and the turbo sounds different (like its getting more air through it - healthier basically)
I'm a happy laddy again
A Big Thanks to everyone who helped me out on this one! (helping finding the prob, the part, the TSBs, etc.) Thanks guys and you know who you are and seriously guys, i really appreciate it
