Best Answer

The EGR valve helps your car more efficiently and completely burn fuel by recirculating a portion of your exhaust and running it through the combustion process again. This results in a cooler, more complete burn of the fuel which decreases you car's noxious emissions by prohibiting the formation of some harmful gases. Pros

  • The EGR valve is vital to your car's emission controls.
Cons
  • When the EGR valve goes bad, it must be replaced.
Description
  • EGR Valve = Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve.
  • The EGR valve controls formation of noxious emissions.
  • Rough idle and poor acceleration can be caused by a faulty EGR valve.

What is a cavalier attitude?

A "cavalier attitude" is kind of a casual, almost dismissive attitude. Webster's defines "cavalier", in this usage, as "marked by lofty disregard of others' interests, rights, or feelings; given to airy dismissal of things worthy of attention." Basically a "cavalier attitude" is not caring about things that are important to you or others.
