I have a 1995 4.0 L V6 Explorer Sport , Can anyone help with what these codes are? I replaced the EGR and the O2 Sensors (both) already and still the codes are there. When I do the OBD I test with the key on (But car not started I get codes 335 and 332. When I start the car I get Codes 326 and 538.
How do I clear the codes to see if I have fixed the problem?
I also have a sort of Jingle sound that speeds up when I move and when I slow down so does the jingle...Sounds like its revolving like a tire or a drivshaft?? When the car is not moving and I rev it up there is no noise so its only while moving that the noise occurs! BTW I have 117K mile on the Explorer, as well as a 3 inch Body lift and 31 inch tires.

More info

After looking over some Previous Posts I noticed that the two codes 326 and 335 have all been associated with a bad PFE EGR Sensor. I think its also called a DPFE. I'll call Auto Zone tomorrow and see if I can get one.
I also drove the car again and the vibration and noise I mentioned seems like its a flat tire But I don't have a flat??? Can the U joints be causeing this bad vibration..The whole steering wheel shakes (Vibrates).

Could be U joints on a driveshaft. The jingle is, in all probability, a cat shield. Notorious for that.

Happy Exploring

My X had that problem with the vibration and it ended up being a knot in one of the tires. The rubber was still good but some of the bands underneath had let go and there was a raised spot on the tire. You couldn't really see it very well but you could definately feel it when your driving.
