reduces your emissions by a petty amount,if clogged up it makes the car run like shit. you can blank it off for nothing and doesn't really effect the car at all. expensive to replace

EGR exhaust gas recirculation valve

reduction of nox by letting small amount of exhaust gas back into the inlet system diluting the air/fuel mixture and reducing nox

But my diagnostic has thrown up CIRCULATION valve, not RE-CIRCULATION valve,
the code is 0400 which is not the EGR code

Thanks
