Thanks. I got my current EGR valve from Autozone (big box parts store) for about $85. Give them a try. But I think its just as important, or more so, to clean the egr passages located below the fuel injectors. I never did it due to previous issues on another car when i opened up the fuel system. Supposedly very doable, though.
