Maybe I'm missing it, but the how-to doesn't really tell you anything. I've got a CEL and I had it checked, it was EGR flow malfunction. Which part would I need to clean to clear it up?

take off your throttle body and look in there with a flashlight....you will see a pipe going down...spray some stuff in there and get a wire brush to clean it out

You will find procedure how to pin point the cause of your EGR problem.

I cleaned EGR system by removing IACV and cleaning EGR pipe entrance to intake manifold. From there sprayed a lot of tb cleaner into EGR pipe.
