egr valve q

ok knowing that i need this part as i get the specific code for it when the cel comes on...my car starts to idle crappy, so i unplug the batt and make the cel go off for the time being while i wait for the egr valve in the mail...but my car still idles really low can the egr valve still be causing this even without throwing the code? the car runs like its in limp mode even though no light is on
thanks guys

The valve can still be malfunctioning without throwing a code. The only way a code is tripped is if the ECU detects that there is a type of signal that shouldn't be there.
