Is the valve melted or is the solenoid melted?
Replacing the solenoid would be a relatively cheap and easy fix.
Replacing the valve on the other hand is more of a pain in the *** to get to and probably costs more to replace. If the valve is shot, might as well do what ss.slp.ls1 said and just remove the egr system completely and block it off.

Verdad Gallardo Buy a set of EGR block off plates and remove the EGR valve, EGR solenoid, and EGR tube. Then install the block off plates to the back of the intake and the passenger side manifold. Cap off the vacuum port that the solenoid used to connect to on the drivers side of the intake manifold.

ss.slp.ls1, I stand corrected.
I never knew removing the valve was easy. I removed my egr system while I had my intake manifold off to fix the dreaded intake manifold oil leak. I remember unbolting the valve and thinking, 'wow what a royal pain in the *** this would be if the manifold was still on the motor.' So I just assumed it would be a big production to get the valve off.
97Ztwenty8 - while your in there removing the EGR, you might wanna say f*ck it rip the AIR pump too. Why? Because f*ck emissions.
