I get the same thing - never figured out how I can have a problem with my EGR gas temp sensor when I don't even have one. I just pull the EFI fuse and go on my way.

Mine usually comes on after I've been on the highway for awhile, most often uphill, then come into town and let off the gas. Happens more in the summer.
