S2 engine manangement light + possible cheap repair

Hey folks,

A few weeks back the engine light came on my S2 CR170, no error on the maxidot or different car behaviour (see pic), managed to get a vcds on it, cleared the errors, all good until I stop/start the engine: light back on, grr. Got this error:

1 Fault Found:

008201 - In take Manifold Flap; Bank 1 

               P2009 - 000 - Short to Ground - MIL ON

Digged arount the internet and everyone seemed they had to replace either the EGR or the whole intake manifold = expensive job.

Then I found these guys that they made this thing:

Checked the little arm on mine and it looks blocked backwards as the little dieselgeek bracket should have stopped it from going, does not move when start/stop like here:

Thought this will be helpful for all the CR engine machines owners out there, cheaper solution tho.

Some other links about:

Will take it down today to check it for humidity on the electric part, etc, then order that bracket if thats the case, will update the status here after.

Enjoy
