Only epc light comes on when you first start it, if you turn it off and on again it goes away. No check engine light. No driving issues. Code

Hi,

For some reason, that code isn't present in my manual for this model and year. However, your description is correct.

Usually, this code is set due to contamination within the turbocharger system itself. Most times the turbo system is cleaned along with the exhaust to make sure that isn't the issue.

As far as the sensor, see pics below. They include (pics 1 and 2) directions for replacement and pics 3, 4, 5 are an exploded view of the turbo unit and a legend of each part.

Remember, this number for whatever reason isn't listed. I even checked 2015 and 2017 in case it was a late or early model with no success.

I hope this helps.

Take care,

Joe
