Auris hybrid engine misfire

My 2015 Toyota Auris hybrid with 51059 km is misfiring, triggering the check engine light. It idles roughly, jerks when I accelerate, and power is reduced. I suspect a defective injector. Has anyone else run into something similar?

Interesting. I've got an Auris too, though not a hybrid. I had similar symptoms a while back engine misfiring, check engine light, the whole shebang. It felt like the engine was hesitating, especially when trying to overtake. Have you checked the spark plugs or ignition coils? Those are relatively easy to inspect and replace, like checking the oil level.

Thanks for the insight! Spark plugs and ignition coils were the first things I checked, and they seem to be in good condition. I'm leaning towards a fuel delivery issue. Did your issue eventually point to a fuel injector problem, or was it something else entirely?

Turns out, one of my injectors was indeed faulty. After some diagnostics at the workshop, they confirmed it was causing the misfires. Replacing the injector fixed the problem completely. Definitely get it checked by a professional. It's like trying to diagnose a heart problem yourself best to leave it to the experts. The repair cost me 515€.

Thanks for sharing your experience! I took it to a trusted mechanic, and you were spot on a faulty injector was the culprit. They replaced it, and the car is running smoothly again. I appreciate the help!
