You have to wrestle it around a bit to get access to the securing nut at the base of the EGR but definitely doable. It's much easier than removing the intake manifold.
Thanks, VMV! Mine has a minor stumble too and am contemplating doing this repair myself if not too difficult or expensive.

Steve, You are very welcome! The EGR cost me about $139 so I did want to be sure that it was the source of my vacuum leak.
