Thank you for your suggestions. When you experienced similar issues with your C8, did those symptoms occur consistently, or only under specific driving conditions? And did you replace the spark plugs?

In my case, the symptoms were intermittent at first, but gradually became more frequent. I did check the spark plugs, but eventually, a visit to the workshop confirmed a defective injector. A diagnostic test should confirm the issue for you too.

Appreciate the insight. The diagnosis confirmed a defective injector, as suspected. Repair cost came to 515€ Thank you for the advice.

I had similar issues with my C8. Have you checked the intake manifold and throttle body for any blockages or leaks? Also, the mass airflow sensor can sometimes cause these symptoms if it's faulty. A rich mixture could also be a culprit. I would also suggest checking the spark plugs.
