Just got done doing this. Pretty difficult, but its doable. Didn't help that I'm only 5'7" and not as flexible as I used to be. I did not remove the hood, and I had to keep climbing on top and laying on the engine in order to work on this, and the bolts are a serious pain in the ass. Goodluck, don't give up, guys. And thanks for the video, it saved a ton of time.
I did it! Man you really got to get creative removing that valve! I almost gave up a few times! Once u remove it the worst is behind you because by then you already figured out where your hand placement goes
you guys are always the best, helped me with all my cars. getting p0404 and p0405, rough idle and jerky acceleration, couple times it's stalled at low rpm when cold.. gonna replace this thing and hope it's gonna fix it.
I tried my hardest to remove the egr valve without having to take off the intake - I could not do it - me personally I think the easiest way to get to the egr valve is by taking off the intake manifold and also by doing this you can inspect the intake manifold gasket and service the spark plugs too - I have a 2006 dodge magnum sxt
I just finished replacing this egr valve on my 2008 Dodge Charger 3.5L. And do remove the cowling and wiper motor/gears, you will need the room! I had to lay on top of the engine from the drivers side to get to the 4 bolts. For the egr tube bolts, you can use a 8mm combo wrench to loosen and tighten back on. Much easier than a ratchet. Took about 2 hours but save hundreds of $$$ and my 0406 code is gone!
Yes I saw this video after replacing mine I did half the work from the top removing the manifold only and finished removing the egr valve from the bottom it helps to disconnect a couple of wires as you see fit for better access just remember to reconnect

Replaced my egr valve and had the CEL cleared at my local auto parts store. At low rpms in first gear the engine starts to stutter and eventually died under acceleration (appr. 1200-1500 rpms). If I continue to accelerate it stays running. Any help here? Check engine light did come back as well.
+Vincent C We do not have a way of being able to diagnose the issue that you are experiencing with your vehicle but suggest taking it to a local mechanic for a proper diagnosis.
This happened to me and I was getting throttle body codes, I cleaned out the throttle body and checked for vacuum leaks. I ended up also changing a hose from the air filter to the engine. And that fixed the problem. Also make sure the sensor to the throttle body is connected completely.
The title of this video is inaccurate. You are working on a 3.5L V6, not the 5.7L V8. These are two completely different engines. The EGR placement on the 5.7L V8 is on the front of the engine near the throttle body, and does NOT require the removal of the hood, wiper assembly, and is half of the work described here.
+Jason Steele Thanks for watching! Yes, that appears to just be a typo, and as Tony states in the video this is for a 3.5L V6 only! The part can be found on our site here: www.1aauto.com/egr-valve/i/1aegr00244?TH-cam&CTA+Comment&USv0VXtys
have you come across a video showing the location of this on the 2006-10 5.7L V8 chargers? I have the same symptoms and i have already replaced the throttle body. my next bet is this but i was led to believe the EGR was towards the back of the engine near.
TEA GUMBY I have the exact issue and I've replaced about 2 grand worth of parts trying to fix this. Computer was the biggest ticket so far smh..I only have the throttle body and egr valve left to replace. Its located in the front on the left..def Alot easier than this video..I got the 2006 charger 5.7L by the way.. I wish I would of done this before everything else..Dealership kept saying they couldn't find a issue with it on their computers so I never knew to check it until I did the research..Lesson Learned lol
Hi there, i have a egr block if i gun it above 140mph (drag race days only) but anything under that speed the car has no issue. Is it possible to clean an egr? Does that cylinder shell come away?
@A1 auto parts is this the “valve train” that people are talking about when they say they have a issue ? Cause I would like to buy a Chrysler I just wanna know if that’s what they mean ??
+Steven Bui We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Typically you would have a bad idling if the EGR was faulty rather than vibrations at a certain speed. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c

Same thing happening to my 2006 Chrysler 300 touring video pointed out a lot not gonna lie really helped give me an idea how to fix the vavle

What other steps should be done after changing the part? Should anything be cleaned before replacing?
Unplug battery for few minutes. Reconnect, start vehicle when all done. Let idle for ten min. Let computer re learn.
Is it the same with the 300c hemi
Can you do it like that without removing the hood?
Yung Philipine ya and without removing the wipers
cab any of these bolts be reached from below, on a lift?
Yes I saw this video after replacing mine I did half the work from the top removing the manifold only and finished removing the egr valve from the bottom it helps to disconnect a couple of wires as you see fit for better access just remember to reconnect
Does it matter what side you install the gasket? It has a lip and I don't know if it goes facing the EGR or the engine.
Awesome video saved me a bunch of money and time appreciate the hard work thanks

Is the EGR valve in the same location on a 5.7L?
No it is not, and this task is way easier on the 5.7. If you are under the hood, it’s on the left side just in front of your valve cover
How long does this repair take?
Is it the same way for v8 version
+jayboogiej It may be a different procedure on your application. We currently do not have an auto repair video for this particular year, make and model. Thank you for asking. 1aauto.com
no the get valve is on the right front of the motor

Great video, This is very helpful. You you recomend taking the hood off or is that just because it is easier to film ? Thank you ?
Will this issue caused the red lightning bolt with parenthesis to pop up
Thats what I need to know too.
Are you having hard vibration random shut offs and loss of power dollar bill?

You can do this on the 2.7l aswell
Does 1-A sell the plastic fasteners?
Does 2.7 Mopar Lx 2005 Chrysler 300 have a EGR cooling with valve?
Hi there, i have a egr block if i gun it above 140mph (drag race days only) but anything under that speed the car has no issue. Is it possible to clean an egr? Does that cylinder shell come away?
If I remove the intake manifold to do the spark plugs will I need to remove the wipers if I want to do the EGR valve since I'm already in there?
+Jason Burcina You wouldn't have to do that.
Yo where can I get those mopar sway bars at

yeah

How is the metal gasket supposed to go one? The two sides are different.
Will this part cause the vacuum leak sound ?
It did for me when the seal to the egr tube was corroding off
Do srt8 have egr valve
which way does the egr tube gasket(blue) goes??
does this also work for 2.7L?
