    Wrench Now What?

    Maybe go to autozone/o'reilies/checkers auto parts & get the code read & go from there?...

    It's not the end of the world my friend, especially if it's not flashing.

    I've had a cel on intermittently, for months.

    I'm waiting for spring to change the intake gaskets...

    I have a fancy diagnostic machine thingy...okay, that didn't sound like I know what I'm talking about. MY HUSBAND has a fancy diagnostic thingy machine (costs like 7k)....my CEL is the freaking EGR that I JUST replaced with a brand new one a few months ago. We just completely disconnected that stupid thing until we have time to deal with it...so I guess I get to look at that CEL for a little while. Out of the 7 vehicles we have, the VX was the only one without that light on, until now

    We cleaned all of it. We've already had an issue with the clogging before so that was the first thing we did. The "insufficient flow" is the code I think...he's not here for me to ask right at this moment. After we took everything apart and cleaned, including the tube, the code came right back on after a few minutes. We haven't had time to mess with it further.

    It baffles me how Mark has endless amounts of solutions for any problem. Ever since 200K, you've become a VX Guru .
