oh and as you can tell i did do some digging myself to come up with the discriptions of the codes rather then just ask others to do that for me, just not mech inclined to know where this stuff is or how to fix it.

the egr sensor volts too high is most likely because the windings in teh stepper motor are shorting causing a loss of resistance and the pcm is seeing that.
