Yes, the idling is indeed rough at times. I haven't specifically listened for exhaust noises. Where should I be checking?

Rough idle plus jerking acceleration definitely sounds familiar. It turned out to be a small leak in my exhaust system. The garage confirmed it. I'd suggest a workshop check before it damages other components. It cost me around 265€ to fix.

Thanks! A leak in the exhaust system seems likely. I will schedule an appointment with a workshop to have it inspected and repaired.

I had a similar issue with my V40. Does it also feel like it's idling rough sometimes? I also had jerking acceleration. Have you checked for any unusual noises, especially around the exhaust?
