    Question regarding my EGR valve

    If my EGR does not work or is unplugged could this cause my car to stutter and about shut off after being driven until normal operating temperatures and shut off. Than restarted to drive again?

    Example:
    I decide to go to the grocery store for some milk. I drive the 5-6 miles to the grocery store shut the car off. Go in the store for about 5 minutes for the milk. Come back out and turn my car on and it stutter and idles real low like its going to shut off for about 2 minutes maybe less. sometimes more depends on the distance driven. But than after that period of time the car will idle and drive like normal.

      But what if it is unplugged. Could that cause the idling?

        yea, if it was still stuck open, then egr would be leaking exhaust into your intake.

              it could just be stuck open, try blocking off the egr valve passages with a piece of cardboard or a cut up soda can. if you block that up and the problem persists, then you know its not the egr causing it. by blocking it off physically you shouldn't throw a cel.

                when you gas, does it struggle to get up or does it still drive like normal and just idles low?
