Had it for months but car runs find. Went to a mechanic and he said it was
the gas cap that wasn't screwed on tight and charged the wife $150 but the

OBD2 reader and found the P0402 message. How do I fix this myself? Is it the
same problem components as P0401?
Both codes point to the EGR (exhaust gas recirculating) system. You will
have to determine what component(s) are bad.
