My EGR wasn't recalled - it did fail and was replaced - but not a general recall - although the recall is 02-03 2.5L - so maybe they were just practicing for the US market....... |

This is not the same EGR valve problem as on the later US 2.8 CRD models, it is more serious, it is about suddenly loosing all brake and power steering control on 2002-2003 2.5 CRD and 3.7 Petrol models. |
