take the egr valve off and clean it out with carb cleaner. then reset your ecu. the car will only rev to 4k because the egr code is making the engine go into limp mode.

front right side of engine if your standing in front of ya car facing windshield, it’ll be right under the plastic guide /shield that holds ya wires in place, it has a connecter on it and 2 bolts, its parallel to your battery if its on the right. I forgot the size I think it’s a 12mm
