it is a relatively easy fix...problem is knowing what to feel for....you can't really see the egr valve...just feel around to see if you feel a "nipple" that's missing a hose...then find the hose and reconnect...

Looked at few threads that had pics but were taken down Cuz old threads. I'll search all day tomorrow while at work

If you look down around the throttle body area you should see the hose that has worked it's way off. It took me a while to figure out but it was pretty obvious after I found it. I can't believe how easy it slides on. Most hoses seem to like to meld to whatever they are connected to not this one.
I was also instructed to get this hose back on because your car will run lean with it off. So I wouldn't be reaming it while it's off otherwise you may pay a bad price.

this happened to me a while back..my egr hoses were still intact and it was a different hose to a sensor that popped off..massimo took care of it,they had to remove the strut bar to get better access
