A code 32 indicates a EGR system fault.
The EGR valve takes some of the exhaust gases from the combustion cycle and returns them into the intake air system. This cuts down on the NOx emissions. A faulty EGR valve shouldn't keep a car from starting.
The repair for a code 32 is to replace the EGR valve.
