I have replaced too many to count ever sense the egr cooler's were introduced in mid 03. The reason the coolers are blowing is caused by heat restricted oil coolers. It is located right in the valley. Ford now recommends replacement of the oil cooler because the coolant is first pumped to the oil cooler then a direct path to the egr cooler. Well we finally figured that the oil cooler's become restricted due to lack of maintenence (coolant) and or just because. So the lack of coolant flowing threw the oil cooler starved the egr of coolant and it's cooling abilities so then the welds inside the cooler melt and fracture causing coolant and water to enter the intake and exhaust system. Our shop charges 15-16 hours to do the job at 110 an hour. This includes both the oil cooler, egr cooler, steam cleaning of intake to remove carbon build up, and cleaning the rusty turbo due to the water entering it. The cost of the parts can vary and the repair costs about $3300-4000. How this is the only way to do it. If you just replace the egr cooler and not the oil cooler you will not be correcting the main cause. In turn paying for it twice maybe three times. If the egr cooler is just replaced about $1000-1200 Maybe less due to parts. Labor would be about 6.5-7 hr. Well do it right the first time and you won't be wasting money down the road. Good luck

how much does it cost to replace to egr valve on the 2002 mazda protege
8-10 hrs as much as 13 hrs depending on what all went wrong with it. Oil cooler should be replaced at the same time if egr cooler failed. that includes R&R of egr cooler, Oil cooler and some time to flush and refill cooling system and oil change or venting of water from cylinders.
It can be a little expensive to replace the EGR valve on the 1987 Volvo 240 DL. The job takes about 1 to 3 hours and can cost as much as about 240 dollars.
3,000,000
ABOUT 120 DOLLARS WITH TAX
Yes. My 2004 F-250 6.0 Powerstroke's EGR cooler also just failed at 34,820 miles. Took it to Ford today. Last November the exhaust system failed and crankcase gaskets started leaking, cost Ford $2,250.00 of warranty to fix. Now the EGR cooler. What's next?
An EGR valve usually can't be cleaned. If you want to try to clean it, us Combustion Chamber Cleaner on it. If this doesn't work then the cost of an EGR Valve from the dealer is about $275.00 Can. I have had to replace my EGR valve about 2 months ago and I wasn't able to find an after market replacement.
The EGR Valve its self is around 77 dollars and the gasket is about 2.50 so if you do it yourself it will be 79.50 taking it in could cost 100+
Usually you replace the egr valve.
remove turbo and intake then remove cooler from under side of intake.
ive seen it as much as $300 which is crazy but got to get it done
Remove the wiring from the top of the EGR then unbolt it at the bottom of the EGR system. You may need to replace the gasket after replacing the EGR itself
