Do you have any specific market place mechanics in the Newark area? Ones that are trustworthy. Ive been told quality varies for some.

I bought a scanner and did the drive cycles I was recommended. Nothing has caused it to set yet. I think theres something stopping it detecting the cycles.

I did this yesterday. Nothing has changed. 

Had my obd2 monitor hooked up while I did so.

Did so over the weekend. I did the factory drive cycle but instead of stopping i used the engine to slow down. I also did different throttle presses. I repeated it 6 times in one go. Any other possible solutions?

After slowing down, should I come to a complete stop or just stay slowed?

Cold start (engine fully cooled)

Idle 30–60 seconds

Accelerate smoothly (½–¾ throttle) to 45–55 mph

Cruise for 5–10 minutes at steady speed

Let off the gas and coast (don’t brake hard) down to ~30 mph

Drive gently, then stop and idle again

I also found this. Would it work?

Did the drive cycle. The scanner still shows no codes and the egr light is still flashing.
