they intermittently fail and leave you stranded with no power just when you need it most as you go to overtake or pull out into traffic...!!! Happened to me, nearly had a crash. Happened to my sister, she had a crash.

@Azreal-_-Low elevation in both cases - sea level basically.

@astamith987 These were both basic cars of "older technology", new-ish but high milage - mine was a Mazda 626 [I think] company car. I went to overtake a line of trucks on a long straight country road and it just d!3d on me - thankfully one of the trucks I was overtaking saw I was in difficulty and let me pull in, if he was not watching me I would had had to crash into the drainage ditch to avoid the oncoming truck. My sister otherwise totally reliable Kia just d!3d on her pulling out of a junction onto a busy road, a car ran into the back of her I believe. Both were dirty EGR vales that stuck. My sister had hers taken off but then it would not run cos it has a sensor on it, so they put it back on with a blanking plate, that would not work so she had to buy a new one. As far as I can see its not the valve thats the problem, its cheapening out on the valve thats the problem.
