Nice easy and free fix! 
This is the offending lobe which needs greased:

Hi mate!
Having the same egr issue.
4CAE - egr position sensor signal error thrown.
Question is how the heck did you manage to get that black plastic cap off the EGR? I can only release the clip on one side, the other being rather inaccessible.
Cheers!
