Toyota Repair: egr valve code 401 insufficient air flow, toyota solara, modulator valve
QuestionI think the code was 410 or 401 but it read egr valve insufficent air flow..does this have to be replaced or just cleaned it is a 2000 toyota solara..150,000 highway miles approx. what should I do ? I have been told numerous things...HELP ME OUT !!! thanks
AnswerSince this is a common trouble code for both camry and solara four cylinder engines I will base my answer on that assumption, the most common cause for this code is that the EGR modulator valve is defective, it's located on a bracket on the EGR valve and has some vacuum hoses attached to it, try replacing it to solve this problem, it's not expensive, about $65, if this happens to be a
V-6 engine let me know.
