Power loss and jerking when accelerating despite visits to the workshop
(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A Renault Talisman experiences jerking and power loss during hard acceleration, with the injection symbol lighting up, despite multiple workshop visits and parts replacements. Possible causes include a clogged fuel filter, which can restrict fuel flow and cause these symptoms. Replacing the fuel filter is suggested as a potential solution to the problem.

Check the fuel filter for any clogs or restrictions, as a dirty filter can cause jerking and power loss during acceleration. If the filter hasn't been replaced recently, consider doing so. Let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance.
As mentioned, the vehicle has been to the specialized workshop several times. I have all the scheduled maintenance done and, of course, the fuel filter, along with many other parts and sensors, has been replaced. In total, I have invested approximately €2,500 in troubleshooting so far... WITHOUT a positive result. The error could not be fixed. The workshop believes it might be the turbocharger, but I won't have it repaired due to the mileage. Especially since I don't know if the turbocharger is actually the problem.

Consider checking the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor. A faulty MAF sensor can cause similar symptoms, such as jerking and power loss. Try cleaning it with a MAF sensor cleaner or have it tested. If the issue persists, it might be worth having a professional inspect it further. Let me know how it goes or if you have more questions.
