I noticed shortly after I installed long tubes and a catback system, that my Idle surges up and down about 150 200 rpms around the normal 700. It doesnt do it all the time, sometimes it bounces up and down then settles, sometimes it continues. When it does this you can hear a slight note in the exhaust like a surge sound when the idle goes up and down.

I looked up the code, and it has to do with the egr, but doing research, I cant get a fix on whether a faulty egr or evp switch could cause surging Idle. Anyone have this problem? Im planning on pulling the egr assy and clean it, but I want to be sure this is it before I go thru the trouble.
100.00 for the assy.

thanks in advance
