Well I would push them to cover at least half of the cost, because this is a very well known problem, which they have tried to fix for the last 8 years.
Even after replacing the EGR valve you could still have some issues with the engine, if the condition of the manifold is similar to mine.
It will be good to check if the swirl flaps move freely by removing the motor on the side of the manifold and then to try and turn the pin inside.
