yeh, thats quite common also, i've never had to replace it, but you can find it on the inlet manifold, just below the main injection components IIRC.

I wouldn'timagine it'd be too costly to replace.

ok i did the test and it came back as the Exhaust Gas Re-circulation (EGR) valve is ?!

try doing the paperclip test, if you search for that you'll find out how you can identify the fault.

Fault sounds like it could be the coolant temperature sensor - cheap, but not the easiest to replace.

But have a look,

good luck
