Re: can u clean egr valve?

yes you can, just take the off the two 10mm bolts, spray some regular good old carb/choke cleaner in there and wipe all the junk off, maybe spray a little in the passiges in the head. if its real bad, some people (including me), will take a small screwdriver or whatever and really rip the carbon out. weather or not the little valve can move easilly by hand is really the only why to tell when you're done. when you put the EGR back on, you may or may not need a new gasket, get one from your dealership just in case, its about $5.
