I have ls 3.9 the p0402 code keeps haunting me. I have replaced the left bank 02 sensors, egr valve and the egr pressure sensor. The car run great with no hesitation so I don't think its a cat. each time I have replaced a component I have disconnect my battery to reset the code, and it keeps coming back.

first, i would verify both vacuum and exhaust are present at the egr valve. if one is missing, it needs to be repaired.
did you mean the dpfe sensor?? this is a common failure.
does the solenoid work? and if it does, does it pass vacuum and open the valve??
there is a lot to this system and you need some help from a shop. throwing parts at it is expensive and most likely wrong.
