The EGR valve is easy to clean along with the small tube that goes into your intake. I'm on my original with 214K that I've cleaned several times.

Easy to clean the EGR and also easy to replace. Personally, I opt for replace since I'm sure you are running the original one, plus you get a new gasket with a replacement one.

Just a FYI on the EGR gasket...
You can get a new one (fel-pro) at any auto parts store for about two $.
At least in Fargo you can...

Agree Dub.......
Autozone also has right off the shelf, in the "HELP" brand section, a EGR gasket that works and has an added benefit, (in my opinion) a screen in it. I think it runs around 4 bucks.
the screen is supposed to help with the carbon that builds up on the egr, by heating up, as carbon gets stuck on screen its burned off befor it can gather on the egr.
seems to work!
