2002 grand am v6 3.4L car has no acceleration power. Service engine light came on. Scanned car code P0404 came up. EGR open performance issue. Replaced EGR valve. Still having the same problem. Very hard to accelerate. Takes a long time to get up to speed. RPM wont go over 3000. Can smell exhaust in the car as well. Car chuggs once in gear. Has never stalled.
