YES! If you dont replace this as often as you should...it could cause major problems. it could cause a backup in your exhaust system. and then when you try to start the car after awhile it wont start. so yes......keep up on its service.

What is the EGR valve on a Honda Accord?

The EGR Valve is an emission regulation valve or Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve is the full name. What it does is recycle the exhaust output back through the engine. It is designed to reduce emissions into the atmosphere. The effect it has on your car? A negative one, this valve (when operational) decreases performance and over time increases carbon deposits within the engine itself (which is obviously not good for it) I have blocked the EGR valve in my Honda permanently by welding it shut (you can also buy blocking kits) The performance of my car increased immediately, however you do have to put up with a permanent Engine check light.
