2 liter running rough

[Juanchoch]

My bad lands has been running a little rough around 2k rpm. It tends to jump up and down and you can feel it when accelerating lightly. I am taking to dealer this week. It has around 64k on it. Any ideas or feed back, also no codes or engine lights.

Spark plugs possibly

It could be any of a lot of different things. Something in the emissions system, faulty coil pack, spark plug, turbo or wastegate problem, or an intermittent short somewhere in a wiring harness. Best to wait it out and see what the dealer finds.

Could be as simple as bad gas. Try another brand of premium 93 octane that is different than what you typically run and do an Italian tune up and do a few hard runs on the hiway to see if it clears up the issue.

I’ve recently changed to Costco premium grade to see if it improves but hasn’t helped. It consistently at 2 k rpms you can see the needle jump 100 rpms then back. I don’t know if maybe the tranny is shifting erratically but I will see what the dealers find out.

Coolant intrusion….

Dealer thinks it is transmission related now I have to leave it while it gets inline to be checked by their transmission dept. I’m also getting my moaning back brakes finally repaired and I’m getting charged even though I told them about this while it was under warranty

Sounds like torque converter….having same issues with 2.0L. Edge….waiting for parts.

Do you have paperwork on reporting the brakes while under warranty? If so, then its documented, and they should cover it...good faith warranty.
