Re: EGR MOD PROBLEMS
i did the mod, i didn't really notice anything but maybe try disconnecting the batt for a little while to see if it clears the code. not saying that will do it but it's worth a shot.

Re: EGR MOD PROBLEMS
Double check that you have the oring properly seated and the assy sits flush in the intake. Its only held in by the top bolt and it is easy to have a air gap at the bottom. This could be throwing your code.

Re: EGR MOD PROBLEMS
I've done this mod as well as install a blockoff plate with a 3/16ths hole drilled in it and have gotten no codes. I just cut the tube back to the first crease though.
