Code result

P2385

EGR Sensor E Circuit

Moderate severity

What it means

A circuit fault is detected on the fifth exhaust-gas recirculation sensor (E). The ECU loses this EGR feedback channel and falls back to a substitute value; emissions and EGR rate accuracy on this stage are reduced until repair.

Is it safe to drive?

Use caution

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.
