Yes, I checked the flap valve too, thanks.

Since it has a EGR computer, that was meant to imply there are other parts to complete an EGR system. Yes, there is a EGR valve plus a bunch of other parts that make up the EGR system. Take a look at the electrical wiring diagram for an 83 240D, that is the best place to look at all the parts. The EGR valve should be on the exhaust manifold staring right at you. Take a look, you can't miss it. If you can't find it, maybe the engine was swapped out for an older one? I remember taking the EGR valve off my 83 240D when it was stripped for parts and cleaned it off nicely to study it. It is not unusual for it to be stuck in a 30 year old car. If you need a good one, I have it.
