The DPFE (differential pressure feedback EGR) sensor tends to fail. The DPFE sensor monitors function of the EGR valve by measuring pressure changes in the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. Symptoms of a failing DPFE sensor are hesitation or stumbling when driving along with illumination of the Check Engine Light.

The "check engine" light came on, and I took it to a dealer. They replaced the sensor, which solved this particular problem (at least as far as I know). The problem occurred at 46,620 miles.

Check engine light comes on periodically. Took to dealer and was told it's the EGR sensor.

check engine light appeared and it is the ERG not getting enough pressure or the sensor is bad. Autozone did the diagnostic for free and now I am reading on the web how to clean the valves and try and fix the part.
