Default 2012 Honda Accord LX auto I4 EGR valve location

Hi,
I want to clean my 2012 Honda Accord LX I4 EGR valve but I couldn' find it after I opened the hood. Does anyone know the location of the EGR valve?
Thanks,
Jimmy

The EGR is on the driver's side of the cylinder head. Look at some youtube videos on how to replace to get the location.

What issue are you trying to resolve? The EGR valve doesn't typically need cleaned. The tubing can get clogged with carbon over time. This was common on older accords (90-02), but it is possible on newer accords. I don't think a newer accord like yours will have the small passages like older accords.

Thanks for your reply. My car has no problem. I just want to do some maintenance. Just found out that 2012 Accord LX I4 has no EGR valve.
