    My 1.6 Petrol VW Passat has recently started to shudder when driving for about 10 minutes loosing power, then with after a while going back to normal again.
    I was left sitting at the traffic lights yesterday by a Granny in a Fiesta!

    The odd time it feels as if the engine completely stops when driving.

    This other morning it would not start, seemed to be battery related but after tapping the terminal and hopping the car a few times, it started.

    My mechanic plugged it in but no faults showed so he will have to run a full diagnostics and thinks its the ERG valve or fuel pump.

    How much would the ERG valve cost to repair and if its not what else might it be?
