There is a code 71, which is one I've been seeing come up frequently on the 1st gen GS3's.

Ok, cool. My post was supposed to have some sort of smiley emoticon in it. I wasn't trying to get pissy, but the post reads that way.

No problem, It's the internet, You can't take anything too serious, especially what someone says to you on the net. I don't think your post was pissy at all, in fact it never even entered my mind until you said it. It's interesting how your outlook on life determines how you interpret things. if you always think posititve, you only see positive, try it , it really works

Check all the items below or call a shop and ask what they charge!!

Open in EGR gas temp circuit
short in VSV circuit for EGR
EGR hose disconnected, valve stuck
clogged EGR gas passage(usually the culprit)
ECM

I thought his post was kind of pissy w/o the smiley. I guess I'm a half-empty kind of guy. lol.
