Default 1996 A4 Check Engine Light

I have had 85,000 pretty trouble free miles on a 1996 A4 until recently. I have had the car in to the dealer 6 times for a Check Engine light that can't seem to be fixed. Does anybody have any history of this and if so what can be done? With in 200 miles of having had Oxygen sensors replaced, vacum hoses replaced and anything else that computer has said is wrong, the irritating light returns. Please help!!!

With out knowing your fault codes it's really hard to say.

The last few scans have come back with Low EGR Flow. If you need the actual codes I can look them up. Early on it was saying the Oxygen Sensor needed to be replaced...

Default Off the top of my head, I'd assume you have corrosion or moisture on the harness block.

Not sure what engine you have, so I can't tell you the exact location. You may want to clean the Harness, clear the codes and see what happens.
