First you need to find out if the egr valve is even opening. Would make sense to have a insufficient flow code if the valve isnt opening.. if you have a multi meter you can ohm the egr valve for an open circuit.. unplug the connector and itll be the two outer pins. The three middle pins are the position sensor
