  1. 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.2D. Hi, had this error displayed intermittently along with 4WD service required - and then going into limp mode. Could clear the fault by my OBD fault code reader but only for it to return after driving for 1/2 -1 mile - worryingly. Fault code reader would show P0106 which mentioned 'manifold pressure etc' which then led me to suspect the EGR valve - perhaps - clutching at straws. Anyway, cutting it short, removed the EGR valve which wasn't very dirty - but gave it a clean. Then looking at the unit that the egr valve attached to, and poking inside with my finger I thought there seemed to be a bit of 'crud' where a small ( about 8mm) rubber pipe was attached to the outside - and went up to a sensor. Taking off the small rubber hose I poked a wire through the metal tubing, which was partially blocked, into the unit. Repeating this with the wire to unblock the pipe, I re-assembled everything. Bingo! took for test drive - perfect - no more warning lights on the dash. So there I was thinking I had major 4WD problems or more and it turne out to be a small blocked pipe by the egr valve.
