Need help with these codes......

[Sp3cops70]

I took the car to autozone and they put the computer on the car and gave up these codes.

P0300, P0401, P0441.

Could someone please paste some pictures of these parts, where they are located, and if possible how to install them. A lot to ask, I know. But please if someone could thanks.

Coes do not say throw parts at it.
p0300 is a engine missfire oe,
Check tune up.
code P0401 is egrvalve low flow.
Beter check for stoped up passages.
P0441 is no flow during plurge on evaperative emissions.
You will need a good scaner and some test equipment and good rapair manual to check it out.

Well codes do not say replace parts they only point to the problem.
The P0300 is telling you the engine is missing. Or a cylinder is not firing or working right.
Most of the time you need a good tune up.
The P0401 code is telling you the exghuast gas reciruation valve is not working or has low exhaust gas flow.
Usually a stopped up exhaust passage on it.
The P0441 may requir a repair shop that has the test equipment to check it out.
If you want to get into it get a All data DIY online subscription and it will led you threw all test and break down the codes and help you repair it.
Very good DIY and professional repair info.
Very well worth the 24.95 US $ a year for it.

Have you recently done any work with the PCV valve or upper intake manifold (UIM)?

[Sp3cops70]

No. Have not done any work.

[BNaylor]

If it has been awhile since you changed out the PCV valve and o-ring seal then I would check that out first. Engine MAP vacuum is used to run the EGR valve flow test. That is the easiest thing to do when you get a P0401 flow fault. Next, I would remove and clean the EGR valve. Clean the EGR spring loaded pintle and the passage to the intake from the exhaust with spray carb cleaner.

Let me know if you need pics.

[Sp3cops70]

Yes some pics would be great....thanks.
