My 2001 GMC 5.3 liter, Automatic, 4x4 Z-71 ext cab check engine light went on. I had it checked by a dealer while I was having the recalled tailgate straps replaced. Luckly, they did the check for free assuming that I was going to have them fix it. To fix the total is $300.0. EGR valve is $200.00 plus $100.00 labor. My question is how easy is it to do yourself? One guy (at the dealer) told me that it is just a simple plug in item and could not elaborate due to big brother listening.
What do you think? Is it an easy fix? Does anyone have any good discount auto connections?
If I did do the fix myself I realize that another garage would probably have to plug in and reset the computer to clear the error.
What else?
Thanks.
