Mine does it only on cold but only until it warms up. I had the EGR valve done and its still the same. I took my car into VX for a tech2 test ( another matter ) and they re-called it in for an ABS mod and an ECU re-program, all under warranty. They said that if the ECU is not reprogrammed with the latest software you will be replacing EGR valves about every 30k miles. The new software forces the value to "Self clean" when the engine is started and stopped, to stop it coking up.
