The second is it's just a bad EGR that activated after the car was not run for a while. And the third possibility is faulty wiring going to the sensor or a bad sensor.

Your fuel door being open would likely cause a code to set with the oxygen sensor...not the EGR.
1) What the hell is an EGR Valve?
2) How much am I looking at to fix this?
