How to fix P0400 and P0408 how to replace EGR on a Chrysler Pt Cruiser 

Wow I’m glad I was able to help you out!

Yes that does sound like it would be much easier! Thank you for the suggestion, hopefully others see this before they start taking things apart

What 6 bolts?

It could be something as simple as a vacuum hose loose. You have to be careful where you take your car, some shops are legit some are out to screw you over. Anyway its not too difficult of an install!

@@jadehorizon1881 I bought it used and the people who had it literally don't know anything about mechanics and just messed up all the new parts they put on. We've seriously had to redo everything they did and then some.

@@kens_fins8764 Damn that would suck! Some people should just stick to their day jobs :p

You're welcome

To reset the check engine light, disconnect the battery for a few minutes and the re-connect it.

You know you're jealous.

UnderTheHorizon Of course not, my wife has the same one in her pt cruiser lol. :)

If you turn the key from off to on (but not started) 3 times, ending with the key in the on position, it will display the codes.

Horses are... nice

Have you checked rock auto? That’s where I get most of my parts.

@@jadehorizon1881 yea but where is this part located in my engine bay?

@@wokeasf6048 it’s towards the back between the engine and firewall. It’s in a very inconvenient spot

@@jadehorizon1881 is there any possible way I can get a diagram or pic of it

I wouldn’t necessarily suggest that. But if you think that may work you could try it out.

Yep that's right. That main steel piece is the EGR valve itself and the "plastic stuff" is the EGR modulator.

aaron morton yeah pretty much the same thing, I just worded it differently

If everything goes smoothly it shouldn't take any longer than a half hour!

Don't plan/bet on it ! So how long did it Really take??

Well we didn't actually have the new part, we tried to just clean it at first so we had to take everything apart a couple times and run to the auto parts store sooo a few hours :P

Will keep that in mind for the future, thanks!

Thanks! Will do in future DIY's

No kidding man. The music was brutal.

I disagree... it’s perfect for me and I can pack everything in the back. Sure it looks like a penis on wheels... but it’s cheap and I drive slow and I don’t care. And yes I have to keep baby on board stickers in my back window to keep big bad arse pickups off my bumper but hey...it’s a small price to pay for driving one of these gems 💎 The inside is amazing. The close smashed parts under the hood are awful though. 😂

So you don’t know what your talking about then !
