I’ve only owned the vehicle 2,000 miles. I am current experiencing intermittent rough idle, very little acceleration power and a code of 301.
After it sits overnight, it runs fine. I’ll get about 20 miles of stop and go driving. Then all of a sudden I will get a very rough idle (usually at a stop sign) then very little acceleration power. The Service Engine light will blink and some times stays on and other times goes out. Then all of a sudden the idle returns to normal and I can accelerate as normal. 1 block later all the bad stuff returns. When the light stays on, I read the code of 301 Cylinder misfire. There is no code when it blinks and then goes away.
I’ve replaced the accelerator pedal and sensor with no luck.
One question I have is if one cylinder goes out, will I have that drastic of power reduction? Can’t it run kind of normal on 5 cylinders?
What are other reasons for the problems?
