Something that is bringing the engine light on will need code reading to diagnose - its the quickest, cheapest and easiest way to find the fault  Try Vauxcare down by Lairds - Vauxhall experience, but not dealer prices http://www.vauxcarewirral.co.uk/
What If There Were No Hypothetical Questions?

Did you manage to get codes read mate. If not i can do it for you on my snap on scanner. As you say its probably EGR needs cleaning.

If the egr was blocked you would notice the power would be lower than it used to be at all times.
