Re: ERG valve

Fairly common I think. Mine was plugged solid also. I now make a point of checking/cleaning it every time I change the oil. The book says you can check it by running the engine up to normal operating temperature. Then place a finger on the EGR valve diaphragm and accelerate the engine - you should feel the diaphragm moving.
