Yeah your car is OBDII.

The code your getting is a non-functioning EGR.

You'll have that.

Don't type like that.

You have obdII, it is constantly checking the position of the egr. If you totally get rid of it or unplug it, then it can't do that, so it will throw a code. I'm sure there is some easy way to fix it, check vfaq or something.

Re-connect your EGR. There is no benefit in disabling it.
