My check engine light has been on for a few days and I had it checked on a computer. It showed that the EGR valve was bad. Could you tell me where this is located in the car. And also is it easy to replace or should I take it to a garage? Thanks!

B4 you junk the EGR, what was the code? P0401? If so, it may not be bad, get back to me.

You can check and clean the EGR valve but what we find 90% it not the EGR valve
check and or replace (DPFE) differential pressure feedback EGR sensor
located on center rear of engine near right side of intake manifold
