Detailed Description

This Dorman EGR valve, part number 904-5097, is designed for vehicles that require an electronically controlled exhaust gas recirculation valve to manage exhaust flow into the intake system. By recirculating a measured amount of exhaust gas, the valve helps the engine control system maintain proper combustion conditions and emissions performance. If you are replacing a worn or malfunctioning EGR valve on a Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, or another listed application, this part provides a direct-fit service solution built around the original valve’s fit and function.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Part May Address

• Check engine light related to EGR flow or valve performance
• Rough idle caused by an EGR valve that is sticking open or closed
• Emissions test failure tied to exhaust gas recirculation faults
• Driveability issues from incorrect exhaust gas recirculation control
• Replacement needs after electrical or mechanical EGR valve wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm connector style, mounting type, and backpressure configuration before installation. Inspect the mating surfaces and replace damaged seals as needed, even though a gasket or seal is included. Clear diagnostic trouble codes after installation and verify proper operation with a scan tool if the vehicle uses electronically controlled EGR monitoring. For Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla applications, match the original valve layout and connector orientation before tightening the V-band clamp.
