Dude the test results show its working!!!If he Had high NOX @ 15 MPH and @ 25 MPH it would show on his print out copy! Thats how you know the egr system is faulty. Here is a easier cheaper way of testing the EGR , Apply Vacuum directly to valve while engine is Idling .If it stalls and engine turns off , hello! it works.Sytem is unrestricted cause gases are getting by and his egr pipe isnt clogged.
Getting off way off subject , his problem is NOT EGR related.

people need to study how and when and why we have EGR systems in our vehicles .




The guy most likely has a vacuum leak causing a lean missfire , take carb cleaner and spray around intake and find your leak ,look for unplugged vacuum hoses.
