Engine light on & ANTI POLLUTION MESSAGE

Post by amebb »

Hi,

I need some help please. I have a 206 cc 54 plate.

Last week I changed the spark plugs. Everything was ok for a week and today the engine light came on with a message on the centre display..... ANTI POLLUTION FAULT etc...

I checked error messages using the OBD and the error code is P0402

Not really sure what that is and how to fix this matter.

Could I have used the incorrect spark plugs?

Any help much appreciated.


Thanks

P0402 is a problem with EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation), so nothing to do with spark plugs. It could be the EGR valve needs cleaning.
