An engine EGR system is provided. An EGR passage includes an EGR cooler, an EGR internal passage passing through a cylinder head on an upstream side of the EGR cooler, and a relay passage extending outside the cylinder head and connecting the EGR internal passage to the EGR cooler. The EGR cooler formed in a columnar shape is arranged above an intake manifold so as to locate a gas inflow port on a first end surface side and a gas outflow port on a second end surface side, and the relay passage communicates with the EGR internal passage on an external side of the engine compared to a head EGR gas exit. The EGR cooler inclines downward from the gas outflow port toward the gas inflow port, and the relay passage is connected to the gas inflow port while being bent downward toward the upstream side.

A valve housing for an exhaust-gas valve includes a first housing half-shell and a second housing half-shell, wherein the first housing half-shell and the second housing half-shell complement each other to form the valve housing. A first valve seat for a valve flap assembly and a swivel bearing mount to swivel mount the valve flap assembly are formed exclusively on the first housing half-shell. Furthermore, an exhaust-gas valve having such a valve housing and an exhaust system having such an exhaust-gas valve are presented. A vehicle having such an exhaust system is also presented. In addition, a method of manufacturing an exhaust-gas valve is explained.
