Yes,the egr valve can be replaced. you did not specify what year,make model or the engine size,but the egr valve can be replaced .not an assembly. just the egr valve. do not be scammed! suggest you call several parts places,autozone.com or advance auto,com call several garages for estimates.you will find that the part costs quite a bit. i replaced one the other day on an 89 blazer for $25.00 but customer supplied part.took 20minutes to replace. some take longer than others. that's why i tell you to call several garages to get labor only price.if they supply the part,they will mark up the price.i do. i have to take time to go get part,then replace it also. the part cost,the labor cost. if you pay $90.00 for the part,which may be your case.the garage is going to charge you twice what the part costs to replace it. call ahead before you commit. price match with auto parts stores. if you find it cheaper somewhere else,don't be afraid to tell the other parts store so. most cases,they will match the other stores price. and so it goes with the labor. do not be scared to ASK questions and compare labor prices.hope this helps and if so,let me know. thank you for choosing fixya.com we are here 24/7 7days/week

2004 mercury grand marque check engine light on code is p0108 says map sensor or vacum leak but does not have leaks.this car does not have map sensor what else needs to be replaced

PO 108 --- Baro/Map Sensor High Voltage Detected

Yes it does

It is integrated into one unit in the ESM EGR assembly
(possibly)

I have no experience with that,so if you find only an egr valve
& no other sensor with vacuum hoses & wires going to it,replace
the egr valve.

Getting the feeling you missed it

Work the web sites. Put in your motor & EMS Module for egr
& see what comes up

Need to find and replace the DPFE-15 sensor. Dealership diagnosed when service engine light came on and saaid this is what needed replacing. Problem is I do not know where to find it on the engine.

Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) System The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system is designed to:
  • reintroduce exhaust gas into the combustion cycle.
  • lower combustion temperatures.
  • reduce the formation of oxides or nitrogen (NOX).
The amount of exhaust gas reintroduced and the timing of the cycle varies by calibration. Timing and volume are controlled by the following:
  • engine rpm
  • engine vacuum
  • exhaust system back pressure
  • engine coolant temperature
  • air charge temperature
  • throttle position
The EGR valve (EGR valve) (9D475) is vacuum-actuated. The vacuum hose routing diagram is shown on the Vehicle Emission Control Information (VECI) decal. The EGR system is a differential pressure feedback EGR Sensor system. Differential pressure feedback EGR Sensor is a subsonic closed loop EGR system. The differential pressure feedback EGR system:
  • monitors EGR flow rate by the pressure drop across the metering orifice located in the EGR tube.
  • uses a differential pressure feedback EGR sensor as the feedback device.
  • uses the EGR valve only as a pressure regulator, rather than a flow metering device.
  • controlled pressure is varied by the valve movement using vacuum output of the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid (9J459).
  • allows for a more accurate assessment of EGR flow requirements.

Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor Removal
  1. Disconnect engine control sensor wiring (12A581) from Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor.
  1. Disconnect Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor hoses from EGR valve to exhaust manifold tube (9D477).
  1. Remove retaining nuts or bolts (depending upon application) and EGR Differential Pressure Feedback transducer.
Installation
  1. Follow removal procedure in reverse order.
  1. Tighten retaining nuts or bolts (depending upon application) to 5-7 Nm (45-61 lb-in).

EGR sensor replacement

EGR valves were a common failure item for the 05 Caravans. Ours died at 42k miles.

The sensor and valve are serviced as a unit. Expect to pay $150-200 to have it done, or you can DIY or less than $100.

Took it to mechanic after it wont stay running he said it needs a crank shaft position sensor and egr valve. Where is the sensor and how do you replace it and how do you replace the egr valve.The mechanic...

what are the codes that made him think these two parts need replacing. The egr could cause a rough idle or stall, But it would need to be stuck open a little which may not set an egr code.

The crank sensor wouldnt cause a rough idle but the car could stall at times intermittantly.

What are you exact symptoms

EGR code keeps coming on

It may be, but the code will specify what the problem is as a lot of things can trigger an EGR code. There are numerous codes that relate to the EGR, but the individual code will usually pinpoint what the issue is.
Some causes could be the DPFE sensor is faulty; there is a blockage in the EGR (tube), most likely carbon buildup; the EGR valve is faulty; the EGR valve may not be opening due to a lack of vaccuum
