thats what your looking for they put them ontop the engine like the picc or at the front of the engine see pic below 

some are plastic and some metal.

remove the 2 bolts and unplug the item then soak it in petrol or give a good clean with wd40 or a good degreaser then refit it.

its to do with the idle as sometimes it sticks and the engine over revs or cuts out.

 

sometimes it mounted at the front of the engine just below the manifold. acces is usually ok from the top

a pic of the engine maybe of help for us as they have changed things on the engines and moves nabout

hope this is of help

let us know

I had always thought that it was only on diesels.

But my previous car a Saab 9-5 petrol had an EGR valve.

That is why I asked here because I did not find it on this engine.
