I'm not arguing with Chrysler Tech, but for what its worth I did change mine out with an EGR from O'reilly for a different issue -sluggish acceleration and idle maneuvering stalling- and have had no codes or problems. I have, on Honda's and a few Fords cleaned out "EGR ports" in the intake. On both vehicle makes several were clogged with carbon buildup. I'm not sure if the Pac engines have similar issues. Kevin?

Also, RockAuto sells an OEM EGR.

the P0401 EGR insufficient flow detected which teh computer controls the solenoid plunger inside the egr to add or take away the amount of exhaust that the system wants. so if the egr was replaced already and your getting this code either the port is flawed or its not fact enough for the computer to allow it to work. been there done that with the pacs
