If you have a P0404, then the EGR valve is likely an electrically controlled EGR valve instead of a vacuum controlled EGR valve.

OBD-II Code P0404 is defined as a Exhaust Gas Recirculation Circuit Range/Performance NOx gases, which cause acid rain and respiratory problems, are formed when the engine’s combustion temperature is too high (2500° F). EGR systems are used to reduce the combustion temperature, thus reducing NOx formation. Aug 12 2019
