My car stopped accelerating on the highway. The accelerator was completely non-responsive, but it could still slowly creep in drive and neutral. (Still wasn't smoking) I crept it at less than 5 MPH all the way to my driveway. Coolant and oil was very low but I refilled it.
The next day, while my car was idle and while I was pressing on the accelerator (still non-responsive) big clouds of white smoke started going out of the exhaust and now it smokes as soon as I turn it on.
Checked codes and got P1400. Ordered a EGRC Solenoid (yet to replace). I cleaned the EGR Valve and replaced a torn purge hose.
Car is now responsive to accelerator, but smoke is still coming out.
I'm new to cars so I'm tying my best to learn. Thanks!
