vacuum problem

ok my egr isnt getting vacuum, what could it be?

i checked the lines, i checked the egr valve itself and cleaned it, and everything else needed.

i have the 3.0L v6, and im thinkin its the small vacuum solenoid whish isnt turning on

DPFE

I have been trying to locate the DPFE on my 03 and can not find it for the life of me. If anyone could point me in a direction it would be great. thanks

I don't know about yours, but mine is on the upper intake, right by the throttle body

Right by the the two coolant hoses going into you're intake plenum. It's black/gray plastic and bolts onto the front of your intake
