I posted earlier —posting again with updated info and questions. I took my 2017 Volt to the dealership (I hate dealerships, but no one seems to know where else to take it in my area of SE Michigan) because of a battery warning light and “propulsion power reduced”message.

Dealership said EGR valve and cooler needed to be replaced and quoted me $5000 for the privilege. The main code is P00B7, but there were many others. (I can’t see to post the screenshot here atm).

R/volt users have recommended that I replace the fuse, clean the EGR cooler, and unplug the EGR valve.

NEW QUESTIONS:

1. Does the course of action still make sense, given the code?
2. If so, where do I get a replacement fuse?
3. I believe I can replace the fuse and unplug the EGR valve on my own (with YT videos), but I’d rather not do the cooler cleaning. Any suggestions for luring a mechanic to do that part?

Thanks a million!

2017 Volt…EGR valve and cooler need to be replaced, but I really don’t trust the dealership. Are there reputable options around my area?

Thank you!
