My Lx450 stays in Baja most of the time so my resources and tools are very limited. My Ca smog check was once again due and I had a CE light for code P0401 low flow egr.
This is what I did and light has not returned after driving many miles and fill ups.
I removed this vaccum line
Using a small wire I worked it up and down thru the nipple while spraying Wd40 into it. I then used a drill bit the same size as outter diameter of the vaccum hose and put a hole in the bottom of a aeresol cap and hung it above by a wire . Then I put the other end of vaccum hose back on the nipple. I started the engine and proceeded to pour water into the cap and the water was sucked into the engine slowly . I did this process about 4 times reset my CE light and it has been trouble free ever since.
