Hello,

This could be from a variety of things, so I am going to ask you a few questions so we can get what's going on narrowed down a bit, okay. When was the last time a tune up was done on your vehicle? When did this start happening? Is it worse or better when the vehicle is cold? Please answer these questions and we will get this problem figured out.

Thanks,
Alex

Hello again,

Okay, can you confirm the spark gap for me on your spark plugs? And does your vehicle have a coil pack/spark plug wires, or does it have Coil On Plug (COP) coils(each cylinder has it's own coil)? I have included the correct spark plug gap in the diagrams below.

Thanks,
Alex
