Corolla Hybrid Engine Issues

My 2023 Toyota Corolla hybrid is exhibiting some concerning behavior at just 24990 km. I'm seeing higher fuel consumption, reduced engine power, and the engine occasionally stalls at idle. I've also noticed some smoke when accelerating. Suspect a faulty connection in the injection system. Has anyone experienced similar issues?

Corolla hybrid here too. Sounds familiar. Was the performance drop sudden, or did it creep up on you over time? Could be a fuel issue.

Good question. I'd say it was relatively sudden. Do you think it could be fuel related, even with these symptoms? I'm also wondering whether it is the cable or plug connection of the component.

Yeah, sudden drop points to something specific failing. I had a similar thing happen, and it turned out to be a defective connection. I'd suggest getting it checked at a workshop, just to be sure.

Appreciate the insight. Defective connection makes sense given the symptoms and timeframe. Took it to the workshop – cable or plug connection of the component defective, as suspected. Repair cost was 95€. Thanks again!
