U cam do a paper clip test of it mate the port is by the fuses below the steering wheel but my 8v corsa did the same as u and turned out to be the egr all I did was clean it as it was clogged up big time after I did that no eml light what so ever and no problems occured

There is a thead on how to do the paper clip test and its anoying when the lights constantly turns on
but if the egr is fine then I would go for the cts sensor
