Power loss
Volkswagen Eurovan 2006 60000 miles
After changing the filters and oil, my van (diesel engine) has started having power failures. When scanning the vehicle, the mechanic told me it was the electric resistance, but I investigated a little bit more and I believe it might be the EGR that is failing: What do you think about it?

Buddy, the same happened to me and it was the EGR sensor that was causing the problem.
