Have a terrible miss in the engine when driving. Have used injection cleaner. It shows that it is the egr, but that was changed not too long ago.

You may have an EGR issue but that's not causing your miss. Have you checked for codes recently? Were there any misfire codes stored?

No misfire codes. The only thing that showed is the
EGR.

That makes me doubt if you really have a misfire. The computer tracks misfires and will set a code identifying which cylinder it is.

Well, it is missing very badly and you can hear it and feel it. What do we do next?

Your going to need a scan tool to go in and read the misfire data.
