Yes, a malfunctioning EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve can cause a car to stall. If the EGR valve is stuck open, it can lead to an excessive amount of exhaust gases entering the intake manifold, disrupting the air-fuel mixture and causing rough idling or stalling. Conversely, if it's stuck closed, it can result in increased combustion temperatures and knocking, which may also lead to stalling. Regular maintenance and timely repairs can help prevent these issues.

Check the EGR valve. It sounds like your EGR valve is staying open. An EGR valve that is open at idle will cause a car to stall. An EGR should be closed at idle and open when you are driving around.
