Take more time making sense so we would first consider helping you. No offense, but I didn't get half of what you said. Grammar > You

Your water temp guage shouldnt go all the way up! If your talking a stock temp guage it shoul run in the middle somewhere. Dont know where you are from but here it is getting cold and when I start to drive my temp falls do to cold air.
EGR valve I know nothing about, but hte knock sensor means you have a KNOCK in your engine.
Smelling oil could be a leak somewhere. Check the valve cover, Oil cooler (under the oil filter) and the oil pan.
