Lightbulb 98' 24 valve, Changed DPFE, cleared computer, check engine light came back on

I had a P401 error code for "EGR flow insuffecient". I first changed the EGR valve. Error code came back. I then changed the DPFE valve, cleared the computer and the error code has come back again. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

I tried your rememdy. Cleaned the intake with carb cleaner, cleared the computer, and the darn light came back on. So far I have changed the EGR, DPFE and cleaned the intake behind the EGR. Any other suggestions out there to take care of a P401 code?
