Has anybody had an experience with something like this? I know it be a variety of things but if you have any familiarity with this, could you please help me! The car drops down to about 100rpm and stays there, but it's completely fine at a stop on the road. I thought that it was because it was cold, but it seems to happen randomly because after various stops and re-ignitions it happens. I already tried turning up the rev thing on the motor so it could "rev at a higher rpm" but it still does it. And it's really annoying. Please help!

If you have an OBDI car with no visual inspections I'd just remove it and use block-off plates, then splice the EGR temp sensor wiring together to keep the code from triggering. EGR does nothing but gunk up the top of the motor, funny how new cars don't have EGR anymore...

I took the top of my intake manifold off to clean it and it was filthy. Stupid EGR... How safe is an EGR delete? |
