Hello from the land of the Bravo, and the Croma.

Today my bravo gave me a scare with a near stall pulling away from a set of lights. I had no power as if the car was in limp home mode (had that before). No warning lights and after about 10 seconds it cleared itself up.

I've seen a few threads in the Croma section for a similar problem and wondering if any of the 150 multijet Stilo's have had the same problem?
 
only thing like that i had was a problem with the swirl flaps sticking,but that did put into limp mode and engine light on .fiat had car 3 times and i ended up finding a bolt jamming the mechanism on the 4th once removed been o.k.since.
e.g.r.valve would be my bet,should be the same?https://www.fiatforum.com/stilo-guides/156040-1-9-multijet-150-egr-valve-removal-cleaning.html
when i first had trouble i found that the vauxhall astras and vectras seem to have sold many more cdti engined cars than fiat or more just join the clubs so also search for faults with them.
as far as im aware they are the same e.g.r valve and a few swirl flaps are main 2 ive seen.
this ishttp the newer egr version i believe.
