Thanks justnspace. Yeah.. very weird. I do alot of "In Traffic Driving!" every day! Where is the EGR Valve located? Can I get seafoam at Autozone or Pepboys? Thanks

OP, chances are it's just plugged by a chunk of carbon/debris. Remove it and blow it out with compressed air. I doubt you need to buy a new one.

I have a 2007 Type S with 68000 miles and I got the same code yesterday. I did a search and came up with this thread which is very helpful. This morning the engine light was still on and I was getting my Acura extended customer care warranty paperwork together to call the dealer. I went to a meeting at lunch and on my return trip I noticed that the light was no longer on. I guess I'll wait and see what happens.
