AC Delco's model 214-1090 replacement EGR valve was a perfect direct replacement for the defective unit on my 2000 Monte Carlo LS equipped with the 3.4l V6 engine. This is the fourth EGR valve replacement on this engine, with the most recent valve failing at 111k.Code P1404 appeared on the OBDII monitor when the EGR failed to function properly. Typically, the EGR fails to open in a timely fashion, correspondingly setting the P1404 flag on the ECM. Replacement of the EGR valve with this AC Delco model 214-1090 cleared the active flag (and MIL or dashpanel light), and after approximately 50 key-cycles the pending code also reset itself.Initially, in 2002, the GM dealer attempted to 'clean' the pintle and orifice of the OEM valve, but this repair was short lived. The active error flag / MIL was set within days of this repair. After the EGR was replaced, the new EGR functioned adequately for approximately 30k miles. In particular, all EGR valves on this engine last between 25k and 33k miles, or 2 to 3 years of engine operation.I highly recommend this replacement EGR valve, but would like to extend an open invitation to AC Delco to examine the design of the pintle and offer a version that is largely self-cleaning, thus extending the operational life of this component.
