Just EGR valve. It works with the exhaust to re-burn fuel. If it is not operating properly, the car will have a tendency to stall at idle, run rough, and not perform up to standard. Could be the valve stem is jammed due to carbon. You can try and clean it, or just replace it if that is the problem. Also check to make sure the vacum line is good.
