EGR Valid Recall Replacement question

All

I'm getting occasional engine check lights and Drive Moderately messages in my 2013 F31 320d. This only happens in town driving, along with a reduction in performance. Long motorway journeys are just fine - the car goes well.

My mechanic's diagnostic shows:
P0237 Stored. Turbocharger boost-press. Sensor A. Signal too small
P0402 Stored. Exhaust -gas re-circulation. Amount excessive
P0237 Sporadic. Turbocharger boost-press. Sensor A. Signal too small


Is this worth a visit to BMW to expect whatever is causing this to be covered by the EGR recall, or are these codes due to wear and tear on the EGR and is just what happens with a 7 year old 320d?

In the UK - unless you have had a recall letter, which for some reason I haven't - you have to pay your BMW dealer £99 for an EGR inspection. Which is refundable if found to be valid- claimed back from BMW UK. (My VIN and Reg show nothing due in the BMW recall on-line database)

I would be grateful for advice before committing please, ie: either to my local man or trying BMW themselves.

Thanks all
