Interesting, I hadn't considered the intake manifold. I'll check for soot tomorrow. If it is the manifold, what sort of repair costs am I looking at?

If the intake manifold is indeed leaking due to scorching, it's not just a case of tightening a bolt. It's like trying to patch a cracked pipe with tape – it might hold for a bit, but it's not a permanent fix. You'll probably need a new manifold. Considering parts and labor, budget around 1180€. It's best to get it checked by a workshop to confirm the diagnosis.

Thanks for the insight. I took it to the shop and they confirmed it was indeed the intake manifold. Quoted me pretty much what you said. Getting it fixed. Appreciate the help!

Sounds like it could be related to your intake manifold, potentially a leak due to scorching. Are you noticing any black soot around the manifold area? The symptoms you're describing -- jerking, error codes, reduced power, rough idle, exhaust smell – all point to a possible manifold issue. Think of it like a blocked artery restricting the engine's breathing.
