I haven't specifically noticed misfires, but it's possible. What was the eventual cause of your similar issue?

Turned out to be a defective fuel volume regulator. It was traced back to a high pressure pump issue. If it's the same thing, it's workshop time. Cost me about 1500€.

Thanks for the advice. I will take it to a workshop for diagnosis, armed with the information about the fuel volume regulator and high pressure pump. I appreciate your assistance.

Sounds familiar! I had something similar happen with my C3. Rough idling and loss of power, plus the check engine light. Have you noticed any misfires?
