Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys, I've got a base 981 Cayman, done about 34k miles. Service every year and get all reccomended things. I've noticed recently that my car feels a bit jittery and almost chugging like behaviour. Its not majorly aggressive but I can feel it. I mostly feel it when I accelerate moderately hard and come off the accelerator. Sometimes I can feel it going from gear 2-3 aswell. Its a PDK with sports chrono package. I daily the car and often drive pretty hard when I can and feel safe to do so. I've heard the PDK can learn your driving characteristics and maybe it's that? I also had some 95 octane fuel in and thought maybe it's that? I just filled it back with 99 and I'll see over the next few days if it goes away. Am I being overly worried here? Thanks

David W. said: Coil packs, is it worse in the wet? Unsure, I'll try to get a chance when its dry and really wet to see if it's much different. Are coil packs expensive to replace?

Not sure, I had some under warranty once due to lumpy running. Google is your friend here.
