Im having some seemingly big problem with my car's performance. It started sputtering and wont maintain a good idle. The check engine light came on so I ran a scanner on it. I came up with 4 codes. One said that my egr is getting more than its max voltage. Another said that the TPS is getting more than its max voltage. Another said that my intake air charge was -40 C /open circuit. And another said that my coolant temp was -40 C/open circuit. I replaced the TPS and cleaned out the egr and it seemed to be working fine. I even changed the O2 sensors. There has been basically no change. The chec engine light goes on and off througout rpms . There doesnt seem to be a pattern to it. Im very short on cash at the moment so id like to not have to buy all kinds of sensor and what not if i dont have to. Im afraid if i ask local for mech's questions they will just beat around the bush to try and get me in their shop. please help.
