I appreciate both of your replies. I didn't use my OBD II scan tool when diagnosing the emissions failure. I looked at the report and assumed the OBD self test failure was EGR related. Can all OBD II scanners detect/display P1000 code? Either way since I drove the car over 3,000 miles in 5 days all monitors better of run. Heck, after doing the UIM/LIM rebuild I only drove the car a day before smogging it a second time.



Perhaps I should not have assumed that your code was a P1000 code. As far as I know, all OBD II scanners and code readers will show a P1000 code.

Beyond that, if you don't know what code was stored then it would be nothing more than speculation that it was an EGR code.

For what it's worth, last time I had my car tested, all the readings were near 0. If everything is working properly, the readings can be even lower that what you had. I don't remember how many miles it had then, but I'm guessing that it was around 190,000. All emissions equipment is original, even the pre cats that would ocassionally throw cat ineffeciency codes.
