How to Clean your EGR Valve on your Mazdaspeed 3/6 or CX-7 to fix the P0401 CEL Code

Hi:
First post... My son just bought his first car (2006 Mazda 3 S trim with the 2.3L motor (Canada)). It's a great car, but it's throwing the following:
P-0030 followed by
0131
0030 (again)
0401
my car nut work colleague thinks they might be related, and suggested cleaning the EGR valve first (after finding this article), and see what happens. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, to avoid struggling with that EGR valve if I don't have to. Thanks!
P0401 is a clogged EGR, go ahead and clean it.
