EGR Limp mode?

Is there a EGR limp mode for the 04 6.0.
If so how is it bypassed?

The only answer is the word "no"... but that's too short. Freeze plugs didn't work?

Egr

Freeze plugs worked great, but now I get a EGR low flow code.
And after a hard accelleration when I take my foot off the throttle
I get an air wooshing sound from the left side. sounds like air comming back out the turbo into the K/N filter.But the boost is normal.
No grinding just sounds like air kind of wo wo wo wo wo then it stops.
Any Ideas?

I read on another site that if the EGR popped any codes it puts the truck into LIMP mode and fixes the turbo vanes to one position is that true.?

i thought the check engine light just came on, if you get a custom tuned SCT programmer they can take care of the check engine light

Hard accell

Only does it after a hard accel and immediatly off the throttle.
If I let of the throttle moderately or slowly it does not do it.

I wouldnt worry about it at all. I believe its considered normal operation.
