Exhaust Gas Recirc Efficiency ... or some-such.

Came on last night driving home. I'll check all my connections/hoses. Think I should replace the EGR or wait for it to recur?

If there's really an issue should I bust my b*lls gettin' it fixed before tomorrow???

Thanks

If the code doesn't come back I wouldn't wory about it for now.

If the EGR is sticking closed it will not bother you WOT driving anyway. If it is stuck open it will act like a direct vacuum leak, but you will notice the car will dye at stops so that would be obvious.

It may just be carboned up.
