Title: Just off idle on acceleration as if it cuts back on a couple cylinders
Post by: Brad on July 09, 2021, 14:13:02

Just purchased 2012 i30 200,000 km auto, just off idle on acceleration it as if it cuts back on a couple cylinders but soon as you give more acceleration it’s fine, definitely a bit more rattley when this happens, I did put some good second hand injectors in thinking it would fix the problem but has made no difference at all, any suggestions to try thank you

Coils, plugs and wires could cause those issues

Did you program those new injectors to ECU? Does this rattle happen always or randomly? I was just wondering if loose chain or faulty tensioner would fit to your description...

It is a diesel.

No I haven’t coded injectors in yet, I plan to get done this week, it rattles just after idle when accelerating, 90% off the time
