first a question- vehicle is STOCK?

SUGGESTION,
get the codes, parts stores ie autozone will scan for free as a customer service... post the codes
pxxxx

might try key trick ...ign sw off to run position ....
off, on, off, on, off, on.... might see codes in digital odometer- anyway wont hurt

It is totally stock. I did the key on-off several times and P0404 code came up on the odometer.

I checked for the code online and it indicated the EGR value problems. Took it to the garage, had valve changed and is now perfect. The garage charged $40.00 with their handheld unit to diagnose the problem that I had already told them what it was. Those code readers sure do pay for themselves.

I just had this code pop up also P0404. I'll be changing the EGR this weekend, as the engine is running rough now. Good to see you got it fixed.
