It is your EGR valve ,that has clogged up.You need to take it out and clean with carb cleaner or soak the mechanical part of it in petrol overnight and remove any build up with a stiff brush (Toothbrush).

The EGR Valve is the problem with your kangoo, the valve can be cleaned out with carb cleaner, I done one about six months ago and its still driving fine.

Try adding a bottle of injector cleaner to your fuel tank at the next fill-up then take it for a run down the motorway - it works wonders for idling problems.
