Question

How do I remove the EGR valve on my 2001 Toyota Camry? I got the engine code P0401

Answer 1

The EGR is located at the top rear of the engine. There should be either 2 or 4 bolts.. and 2 vacuum hoses to pull off. Make sure you have the metal gasket that goes with it.. Just remove all and replace it.. Put it back together the same way.. IF you light comes back on and still says no flow in or out of EGR.. then its not the egr valve. There is a EGR valve switch at the back of the motor that will burn up sometimes and cause the EGR not to work. If that's the case then the EGR Valve switch needs to be replaced.

Would you be able to show me a tutorial on how to remove this by any chance? I tried looking through youtube and could not find any video on how to.
