Try cleaning or replacing all the small EGR vaccuum hoses. As well as blowing some compressed air through the EGR valve itself. Then reset the ECU... Hopefully the code will be gone.
( If emmissions testing is not an issue of concern) You could always pull all that BS out and install some EGR blockoff plates.
