any ideas as to how this could happen?? i have no idea and usually doesn't the car idle irratically like the rpm's jump from 1k to 2-2.5k when the cars on to indicate a vac leak? or could it be that the autozone dude the ran the check engine light for me was just tellin me poop??

either way i disconnected the battery and also took the ecu fuse out to try to clear the memory but the light is still on so it isn't a soft code that can be cleared... any ideas? thoughts? i haven't added any new performance parts to my car so i know that cant be the problem...

the car doesnt seem to be wasting more gas nor do i smell gas when the car is at idle so im a bit confused... ill get it checked again tomorrow and have them give me the code to see if anyone here can help me more with that...

thanks!

sounds like a vac leak, check your vac lines

anything??? anyone??? is this something i can change out myself or i have to take it to the dealer or a shop to get it done??? i read somewhere about getting the VSV changed out and that would fix the problems... also, the car does bogg out sometime but it's very rare for it to do it, just once or twice in a blue moon it does it as if the car had sucked up water...

any help would be great!!!!

I wanna say those are bad EGR valve codes. I know on fords a p0445 code is a bad vacuum solenoid
