When you say 'check the ignition timing', do you mean visually inspect it, or is there a specific diagnostic procedure I should follow? I'm attempting to understand the level of effort involved before potentially seeking professional auto repair.

I visually inspected mine and then used an OBD2 scanner to confirm. Given the symptoms, it's likely the knock sensor itself or the connection. Proceed with caution; perhaps a workshop is advisable.

I appreciate the insight. It was indeed the knock sensor cable. Auto repair was 95€. Issue resolved.

I had similar car problems with my Kodiaq. Check the ignition timing, though I'm uncertain if that's the root cause. A defective knock sensor can cause uneven idling and increased fuel consumption. Is the warning light consistently on?
