Default Fault code help..?

My friend's A4 had a CEL on. VAG scan returned the following:


Address 01 -------------------------------------------------------
Controller: 8D0 906 266
Component: 2,8l V6/2V MPI OBD2 D03
Coding: 01201
Shop #: WSC 06325
2 Faults Found:
16785 - EGR System: Insufficient Flow
P0401 - 93-00 - Unknown Error Elaboration
16845 - Fuel Level Sensor Circuit: Implausible Signal
P0461 - 68-00 - Cylinder 1

Any ideas?

Default Thanks... my sig is a tribute to my dedication to a lemon

Yep we reset the codes... but haven't driven it yet. Does the A4 have an EGR valve that can go bad?

Found lots of info searching on "EGR Insufficient Flow." Looks like a common issue.
