Cool EGR Valve problem?

Has anyone else experienced EGR valve problems with their SRT-6? I just
had to put mine in the shop due to a malfunction on this unit. After having
a go with an M3 coming out of Cartersville, Ga. last Sunday evening, I
noticed that when I'd step down on the gas pedal, the engine would respond by bogging out, very much like a car with a plugged catalytic converter. Seems the EGR programming became "confused" around 123 mph, and
started behaving badly. The problem wasn't noticeable unless you mashed
the gas. Otherwise the car drove just fine. Dealer service center replaced
the EGR valve and reset the control system. All appears fine now.
