What is the Exhaust Gas Recirculation/EGR Valve all about?

The EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve helps lower the car’s exhaust emissions (gases from the tailpipe). It recirculates the portion of the gasses coming out of the engine by putting in back into the intake manifold, where the engine can burn it again, thereby reducing the emissions.

The EGR valve is located in the engine compartment (underneath the hood). Most engines require exhaust gas recirculation to meet emissions standards. If the EGR valve has gone bad, the car will not pass emissions.

Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve

Keep in mind:

During the EGR valve replacement, your mechanic should also inspect the vacuum hoses connected to the EGR valve. If the vacuum hoses are cracked (leaking), the EGR valve will not function properly.

How it's done:

  • Scan the computer system in the car.
  • Check all vacuum related hoses to EGR valve.
  • Test EGR transducer.
  • Verify the EGR port is not plugged.
  • Remove and replace the EGR valve.
  • Clean the carbon deposit on EGR pintle.
  • Clear the trouble codes and test for proper operation of EGR valve.

Our recommendation:

It is a good idea to get an air induction (carbon cleaning) service performed every 50,000 miles. This will clean out any sludge or carbon build up in the air intake system. Always keep up with regular oil changes; it will help prevent sludge build up in the engine.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Exhaust Gas Recirculation/EGR Valve?

  • Check Engine light is on.
  • Possible loss of power.
  • Car will not run smoothly (shake, stumble, may stall).

How important is this service?

The EGR valve helps your vehicle recycle gas. The EGR valve is responsible for taking the gas that comes out of the engine, and sending it through the intake manifold, where the engine can utilize it again. Without the EGR valve your vehicle will not recycle and reuse any of its gas, which increases the emissions. Without the EGR, your car will not pass an emission inspection.

Chris is the best! On time, honest, thorough, and a great mechanic. Chris has repaired multiple issues with my 2004 Dodge Ram over the past year and I've been satisfied with every repair. I never feel like Chris is pressuring me to do more than what's needed, quite the opposite. Very refreshing to work with someone like that. Thanks Chris!

I replaced the oil pan gasket, valve cover casked on passenger side and both motor mounts on my 2007 [escalade esv](/topics-escalade-esv/) and now it won't start. Verified starter is good but car does nothing when turning ignition. It only has limited functionality when ignition is turned to power accessory on. Dash lights up but doesn't read gas level and shift/gear indicator not on. Radio, cigarette lighter, low beam headlights and climate control work but nothing else. Battery charged up (12.5V) and been on trickle charger. Seem that one of the control modules is not working properly. Hope I didn't smash the wiring harness from [engine](/topics-engine-cadillac/) to transmission when I lifted the engine with the hoist to change the motor mounts!
