I'm sure I'm resurrecting a common thread here but would like any advice regarding a CEL with a P0300 and P0401 code. I have replaced the spark plugs and ignition coils with no change. I unplugged the EGR valve to see if that would make a difference before I take it off to try cleaning it. Still have a rough idle going. Runs OK once it's going but idles rough and seems to possibly experience a bit of a power loss. If you have an answer as to what this could be other than these components I mentioned, a description or picture of the problem child part in question would be helpful. I'm fairly new to the Mazda experience. 2008 CX-7 is the car. Thank you...
