Scudo EGR Valve Issue

I've got a 2015 Fiat Scudo with a diesel engine, around 186000 km on the clock. Lately, I've noticed a drop in power, the check engine light is on, and it smokes when I accelerate. It's running rough, fuel consumption is up, it jerks when accelerating, and there's a loud hissing sound when I try to speed up. I think it might be the EGR valve. Anyone else had this?

Summary of the thread

A 2015 Fiat Scudo with a diesel engine is experiencing a drop in power, check engine light activation, increased smoke during acceleration, rough running, increased fuel consumption, jerking during acceleration, and a loud hissing sound. These symptoms suggest a potential issue with the EGR valve. The problem was confirmed and resolved by replacing the EGR valve at a workshop.

Oh, that sounds rough! I had something kinda like that happen with my Scudo. Check engine light was on, and it felt like it was struggling, especially going uphill. It was guzzling gas like crazy too! I don't remember seeing smoke though. Could be the same thing, could be something else, you know? I'm no mechanic!

When you had those symptoms, did the rough engine running and jerking feel really bad? And do you remember if the hissing sound was just when accelerating, or all the time?

The jerking was definitely there, yeah! Like the van was coughing or something. And the hissing… hmmm, honestly, I can't recall if it was just when I hit the gas or all the time. I took mine straight to a workshop because I was worried about making things worse! They sorted it out, but I have no idea what they actually did. Maybe best to get it checked out properly?

Took it to the workshop, and it was the EGR valve. Needed replacing. Total cost was 355€.
