where is the egr valve located at and how do you clean/change it, how hard is it and how long would it take to clean? thanks just i got some time today and wanted to do this. thanks in advance guys.

 

Are you getting any codes? It takes quite a while to disassemble the EGR system and clean it out. The EGR valve can be found underneath the throttle body in a mess of hoses. It's really difficult to get a good look at it without removing stuff. From the top it looks like a flat saucer with a *** on the top. There is a single hose coming off the side of the ***.

For info on changing/cleaning the EGR sytem, check this thread:
