P0401 And P0402, 2001 I4 Camry by kakameks(op): 12:49pm On Jun 28, 2015
Hi guys,
My 2001 toyota camry. Auto, 2.2cc 4 cylinder. Displayed this code on scanning. I noticed that the engine when idling was rougher than normal especially when the gears were engaged.

The codes were P0402 and P0401.
Excessive exhaust gas recirculation and insufficient exhaust gas recirculation.

EGR stands for Exhaust Gas Recirculation. It is part of the vehicle emmissions system, and is used to reduce combustion temperature and pressure to control Oxides of Nitrogen. There are generally three parts to the EGR system: the EGR valve, an actuator solenoid, and a differential pressure sensor EGR (DPFE). These things work together to deliver the correct amount of recirculation based on engine temperature, load, etc. The P0401 code means that OBD detected an insufficient amount of EGR.
