EGR Valve Video

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve is an important part of your vehicle’s emissions system. It works by recirculating a small portion of exhaust gases back into the engine to help reduce emissions.

If the EGR valve is not working properly, it can affect engine performance. You may notice reduced fuel efficiency, loss of power, or hesitation during acceleration. These symptoms can have more than one cause, so proper testing is important.

At Maxcare Auto Shield Repairin Chicago, IL we can help diagnose EGR system concerns. We may begin with an inspection as part of our auto diagnostics service and evaluate related components within the emissions system repair process.

In some cases, EGR valves may be cleaned, but if the valve has failed, replacement may be needed.

If your EGR valve or emissions system needs to be inspected, call 773-598-8802 today.
