"OBD 2" as in "P0401" Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient Detected

Must be...

Check the rubber hoses between the DPFE and the EGR tube, make sure no leaks and no blockage and......well here this is easier, EGR Valve Problems? A Complete Guide On Diagnosing Automotive EGR Systems

Oh one thing to look for, might be an isolated incident?, wife's Explorer (used what looks like the same DPFE sensor) I found it had yellowish goo oozing from one of the hose nipples when investigating the same problem with it. It caused a blockage at that nipple and was a clear sign of a dead DPFE sensor!
