What is NOx ppm anyways
NOx is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx
And it's bad.


The EGR system is designed to lower combustion temperature to reduce NOx formation, if it's not working properly you'll have high NOx numbers. The catalytic converter also converts NOx but since your other numbers look good I'm not sure it's gone bad. Timing (spark timing or mechanical timing) being off can affect NOx as well.
