Accepted Answer
Welcome to Just Answer, This will be due to one of a couple of common faults on the Z19DTH engine.

The first is a sticking EGR valve, this shows up as an air intake leak fault code, the valve will need replacing , they cost around £80 + fitting which shouldn't be much as it takes only 10 minutes to do.

The next is the inlet manifold swirl mechanism jams and this will need a replacement modified manifold, unfortunately this runs into several hundred pounds.

The likelihood is the EGR ,to be sure you need to either get a diagnostic scanner to your car or vice versa, most good garages have these or otherwise the AA or RAC can do this test.

I hope this helps, best XXXXXXX, XXXXXXX.
