    This has been a reliable car - we got it at 26,000 used from the dealer, but I tend to have the same problem during warm weather. I have been using a fuel conditioner just to keep it running smoothly. I thought it was the ERG valve, but I had it changed today and still have the same problem. Going to have the fuel filter checked next.
