The intake manifold flap control? Where exactly is that, and what does it do? Can I fix it myself, or should I take it to a mechanic?

I wouldn't mess with it yourself unless you really know your way around an engine. Mine was doing the same, rough running and all. Turned out the switch was shot, like a dodgy light switch that controls the air flow. Get it checked out by a pro, trust me. You could end up making things worse!

I appreciate the advice. I went to the workshop, and it was indeed the intake manifold flap control, just as you said! It cost me about 465€ to get it sorted, but at least she's running smoothly again!

Sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my Interstar, felt like driving a tractor! The intake system can be a real pain. Did you check the intake manifold flap control? It might be defective.
