First, remove the plastic cover located under the windscreen (both the upper grille and the lower support): the EGR valve is located at the rear of the engine. To facilitate its removal, it is necessary to detach the intake duct; then disconnect the wiring and unscrew the fixing bolts of the valve from the exhaust manifold, first removing the protective plate and then the gasket.

Before installing the new valve, it is advisable to disassemble and thoroughly clean the exhaust manifold: only after this operation proceed with the installation of the new valve (a refurbished one can also be purchased). After installation, it may be necessary to initialise the EGR system with a diagnostic tool.
