Posts: 7 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 | Rough running cinq sporting My Cinq Sporting's been running rough for a few weeks now - and my garage swear there's nothing wrong with it. They think that I can notice it, only because I drive it regularly. Anyway, changing up to 3rd gear at ~30mph is never usually a problem, but now it makes the car vibrate as though I should still be in 2nd - it does the same in other gears as well, at respective speeds. Acceleration is fading at 2000rpm more regularly than usual - despite having run injector cleaner through it within the past 500 miles. It's been suggested that the ECU could be at fault. I'm going to take it to the dealer, and see whether they can find anything. Just wondering if anyone could suggest the sort of cost I'll be looking at, if it is the ECU? ![]()
