Re: 2001 Deathstar - Shifting Problem?
I got the same code up again, P0401. I think I am going to see if I can remove the EGR valve, hoses and DPFE and look for any cracks or crdu build up. Can anyone tell me how to remove the valve and if there is a way to test it to ensure it is good? I hate to buy things just for the sake of eliminating them.

Re: 2001 Deathstar - Shifting Problem?
Except in the minds of the salepersons at parts stores, the EGR valve almost never, never fails!! But they each sell a basket-load of them each month, I'd bet. They get rusty. They can be difficult to remove/install. Pricey.
The DPFE sensor however, fails often (for Ford). Pricey, but maybe less than the EGR. Its easy to remove (two small screws, two hoses, one elect connector, etc. You could do a quick swap out with someone who has a similar vehicle .. if you are lucky enough to know such a person. |
