To get started with cleaning the EGR valve on your Passat, first locate it using the diagram in the car's manual. After identifying the valve, remove the bolts holding it in place and place it on a clean cloth. Proceed to spray the EGR valve thoroughly with a suitable cleaning solution while rotating it to prevent any liquid from entering the solenoid valve. If your vehicle continues to experience stalling and idling issues after cleaning, it may be necessary to replace the EGR valve with a new one.
