    P0300 and P0400

    Any ever get these two? I don't want to throw a bunch of parts at it. 02 sensors a good guess?

    Vortech blown stage 2+ S52 with a Nick G tune.

    TIA

    P0300 is generally reserved for random misfire or multiple cylinders misfiring. P0400 is EGR flow related. An EGR issue can cause a misfire for sure so it makes sense.

    An 02 sensor is most likely not causing this issue. Make sure your EGR connection is not leaking and the valve itself is not clogged.

    There is no egr valve on an s52 so one may find it difficult to unclog.

    Good point! I have no idea since I have never worked on one.

    What is the definition of P0400?
