    Default accelerating problem

    hi everyone, i have replaced the EGR valve, when acclereating as hit around 4k revs the car stops acelerating suddenly and wont rev past it.
    anyone got any ideas on what can be?

    swirl valve?
    inlet manifold?

    does this happen in 1st and 2nd? if you stop at a certain speed but if you where to put your foot down the sound would stop?

    and does it do it in 3rd and 4th and so on

    Sounds like it may be about to go into limp home mode.
