Hi everyone,
A couple of weeks ago I have experienced weird jerking of the car (when accelerating and at steady throttle as well), then the CEL came on with a P0135 (Primary O2 sensor) code. I cleared the code to see if it would come back on, but it didn't, and the car started running fine again, I drove a few hundred kms with the car feeling like normal, then today the following happened:
I started the car (engine cold), and immediately after pulling away it started jerking horrendously, it would rev in neutral but as soon as I let the clutch out there was no throttle, I pressed the pedal more and more (till about half-way) then after a couple seconds it would rev up quickly, then back to no power, repeat. I quickly turned around and parked the car.
My question is:
Can the O2 sensor alone cause this problem? I've tried changing it, but it is stuck very hard, so if that is the problem, I am going to find a mechanic to change it for me.
Could there be any other sensor that is failing to cause such symptoms?
Thank you for your answers
