In some states, the inspectors are independent organizations that are not
allowed to make repairs (they only do inspections). In that case, the
inspector probably would not know, nor would he/she be allowed to give such
information to the consumer even if they did know.

If the inspection was done in a garage where they can also fix the problems,
then they probably would have already told him what it takes to do the
repairs.

Hello, My Camry '97 just failed inspection. It is code P0401. 'Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient Detected.' Would you please give me your recommendations. Thanks, Talal Itani
