EGR Valves and the more recent engines?

There's a lot of threads on here about EGR valves and their failure and various fixes, including using a 2p piece Shocked

My question is, do the more recent engines have these and could it be expected that these issues will occur over time, or is it something that is specific to the older generation of engines. Just curious really as my technical knowledge of engines is VERY poor, in fact I only lift the bonnet to put screenwash in and give it a quick spruce up when it's looking a little dusty Embarassed

Appreciate any enlightenment people can offer Smile ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
