    If you've got a laptop and are slightly tech savvy you can reset the EGR adaptions yourself for free with Forscan (plenty of info on Forscan if you search this forum).  It does need doing after fitting a new EGR, but I would expect any garage to be able to do this after fitting a new EGR nowadays.

    I don't think these use an EGR sensor (although someone may correct me on that), they use the MAF sensor to determine air flow.  When the EGR opens, less air should move through the MAF.  If the same air flow is detected when the ECU requests the EGR to open then it will assume the EGR is stuck closed.  The MAF is the sensor attached to the air filter box.
