This shows why throwing parts at a car based on a code doesn't work. I'd have it properly diagnosed at this point because you obviously didn't hit the problem while tossing all that money at it. Time for a trip to the dealer? Codes are just that, codes. They tell the tech what circuit is having issues but codes never mean start throwing parts at it. Get it diagnosed, the only thing I can suggest at this time.

All of what Rev said and this:

The EGR System Flow problem is most likely do to the EGR bypass tube. They get a LOT of carbon build-up over the years and just need to be replaced, especially on the VQ30. I would definitely take it to the dealer or another reputable repair shop and have them diagnose it. Autozone is for oil and air fresheners, not getting your car diagnosed.
