o ok sorry i just figured this out. well i took the egr valve off today and it didnt look clogged but i bought some throttle body cleaner i guess i should clean it

Iam talking about the egr port itself being clogged the exhaust and the intake port that is below the egr valve.

ok its raining where im at so tommorrow im going to check the tube just out of curiosity what if its clogged how would i clean it

i just found out i didnt change the egr solenoid i changed the egr vacuum solenoid

The best way you can check if its clogged is remove the egr valve start the engine for a few seconds the engine should rev up and your should hear a good exhaust leak.Lets see what you find and go from there.

The egr vacuum solenoid is the egr solenoid.

o ok

it just stopped raining so im gonna try what u said

hey i did what u said and i could hear the exhaust loud n clear without the egr connected i also cleaned the egr with spray cleaner all the connections and bolts are back tight now im startin to think it could b something else but i dnt think i checked the transducer

You heard the exhaust what about the intake port to the egr they always clog up that side because it blows exhaust gasses into the intake.When you started the engine without the egr valve to the rpms go way up at idle?

yea the rpms went up

Ok good did you use a hand vacuum pump to make sure the egr vacuuum diapharm is holding?

I dont have a hand vacuum pump

Thats how you test the egr valve is by pulling a vacuum on the diaphram of the valve to see if it holds.The diapharm is the most common reason those egrs fail.They might rent one at auto zone.Its a must have in your tool box if your going to fix cars.If you buy one get the mighty vac brand one.I would pull a 20 inch pound vacuum on the valve and see if it holds.

i got a print out of my whole egr system today from lexus i told them what pep boys said and they said they didnt know what pep boys were talking about when they said transducer and said there has to be another name for it pep boys said my egr is good but its the transducer and the solenoid.

If you read the trouble tree i posted for you it doesnt mention a transducer thats why i posted it for you to see.Also at this point i wouldnt trust what pep boys says at this point.Even lexus told you there wasnt one.I would also test the egr like i said too.

ok
