Sean SL Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I have a high mileage (208k) that failed NOx. I checked the EGR by applying vacuum, the engine stumbles. I checked and replaced the vacuum control valve and solenoid. The valve was a little low on vacuum, so I replaced it. The NOx was pretty high so I am not sure that is the problem. I measured 5V at the EGR lift sensor, but I don't have a harness adapter, so I can't check the voltages at the ECU. So I don't know if the logic is working. Any ideas? It could also be the CAT. If anyone is familiar with this, I would greatly appreciate some feedback. Is it usually the first or second cat that goes bad or Both. How can you tell without buying one?
