EGR Solenoid
okay, my car is now throwing a code that corresponds to the egr system, i replaced the egr valve itself, the egr pressure sensor, the only thing left to find and replace is the egr solenoid but i cant figure out where its at on the car, any idea where its at?
the code description says that theres low pressure detected so thats why i replaced the pressure sensor before the solenoid.

That thing just clears codes right? You need something to turn it off...

that just turns the light off for a while but if theres a problem it will keep re-appearing
my suggestion is if u dont have emissions either get an egr delete kit or buy a tuner and disable ur egr valve |
