I haven't noticed a drop in fuel efficiency or unusual smells, and I haven't checked the air filter or fuel injectors yet. Could you describe your Brio issue in more detail? What was the problem?

Well, the jerking and the check engine light were the same. I suspected it was the oxygen sensor or maybe even the crankshaft sensor, but I'm not mechanically inclined enough to diagnose it myself. Ultimately, I took it to a workshop, and they found an exhaust leak, just like you suspected! I recommend you do the same; they have better equipment to check it properly.

I appreciate your advice and sharing your experience. The repair cost for the exhaust leak is estimated at 265€. I'll take my Brio to a trusted local workshop for inspection and repair. Thanks again!

Hey, that sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my Brio not too long ago. Was your rough idle accompanied by any other symptoms, like a drop in fuel efficiency or a strange smell? Have you checked the air filter or considered the fuel injectors?
