I've FINALLY got into this forum - didn't realise hotmail addresses don't work.
I have a 2016 150 T6 DSG with 70k.
2 weeks ago the coil light came on and the van kicked into limp mode. Later that evening the emision control light came on
Initially I used a basic code reader and pulled the following code:
P2006 Intake Manifold Runner Control Stuck Closed Bank 1a
2 days later, no lights on the dash and van driving fine again.
I took the van to my local van centre - they scanned and said there were several errors, so cleared them and asked me to drive until I experienced a problem.
On my way home from the garage, when pulling away from stationary, the van went really rough for a few seconds (not done this before) - it cleared itself, and drove home fine. However, the coil light reappeared that evening.
I decided to upgrade my crappy OBD reader and bought a Carista. Plugged it in and pulled the code 15560 EGR Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance.
I reset this to test when it appears - every time stop/start kicks in, if stopped for more than around 45 seconds, I get the error 15560 EGR Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance. I've cleared the code and tested it around half a dozen times - the code reappears so I think is consistent.
The van has run fine during the day and no lights on the dash. If didn't have Carista, I wouldn't know there was something going on.
I've done a lot of reading today and found one post which has my current symptoms - 15560 error after a long stop / start but van seems to run OK. Unfortunately the post doesn't say what the fix was but he was suggesting he may replace the EGR:
I believe the EGR valve sends exhaust gas into the intake manifold. The original error I had from a basic code reader was P2006 Intake Manifold Runner Control Stuck Closed Bank 1a.
Now I'm seeing 15560 EGR Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance (and one occurrence of the van running rough at low revs), I'm wondering if it could be the EGR valve that's suspect, and over a period of time, it results in the intake manifold error.
Is this plausible or am I way off?

Fault code 15560 p046c00
Hello everyone, I have this engine failure, I have taken it to the mechanic and he says that I have to change the EGR. The car works perfectly for me. The errors are: 15560 p046c00 ( sensor A failure). Thanks!!!
