The EGR valve on the Villager/Quest is located at the top-rear drivers ride of the intake plenum. You will see 2 parts that look almost identical. They look almost like 2 little flying saucers. One is the BPT and the other is the EGR valve. A common problem on these vans, is the rubber tube that goes between the two parts. This hose usually cracks and splits or becomes plugged with carbon. This will trip the check engine light and an EGR code will be present. Replace the little rubber hose (its usually in stock at your Ford or Nissan dealer) and you should be good to go.Good Luck!

The EGR Valve is located just below the firewall lip top center of the engine compartment.
Attached to the back side of the throttle body.
In my Experience the egr value is located on top of the intake near the tpi unit.
I'm not aware that part was installed on Villagers. It would be on the EGR valve if it was.
The 2002 Mercury Mountaineer EGR valve can be found in the engine compartment, on the firewall. The EGR valve will be labeled as such.

If the vehicle is old enough to require cleaning the egr valve, you will be better served replacing it with a new one, giving your vehicle another 8 - 10 years free of egr problem. It involves quite an amount of labor to remove the egr valve, and 1 or 2 years later you are again faced with same problem. Better replace it at once, otherwise, look elsewhere for how to clean it. I just replaced egr system (egr valve, egr solenoid, and egr vsv) on my 2001 Toyota Camry and am getting ready to do the same for my Mercury villager 1998.I have read other posts that state that check engine light goes off after replacing the egr valve.

The 1995 Hyundai Elantra EGR valve is located on the firewall in the engine compartment. The EGR valve will be on the passenger side of the firewall.
The EGR valve is located on the top of the intake manifold rearward of the throttle crank under the cowl. If you suspect a problem with the system, you may want to check the EGR control solenoid, the EGR control backpressure transducer and all vacuum hoses.
