    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    The EGR will be on the intake side of the head towards the firewall on the 2.4/2.7. It is held on by 3 bolts and has a vacuum line and a hose IIRC. It is fairly easy to remove.

    The 5VZ does not have an EGR.

    thanks so much, the shop tried changing the vacuum lines today for a PO402 error, already changed the EGR temp sensor. They advised me that if the light comes on again, I will need to replace the EGR Vacuum sensor. So that is the whole assy, I would need? The pic above?
