The car was always difficult to drive at very low speeds. There was always a jumpy/grabbing slight lurch around 800 - 900 rpm. I assumed that was standard on the car. This got progressively worse but not to the point of being alarming.
In the summer of 2021 on several occasions the car would have difficulty starting. Then "EPC" engine light would come on. The dealer stated that the timing chain was "stretched" and needed to be replaced. At that time the car had 90,263.
The jumpy/grabbing at 900 rpm is no longer happening and the car drive smoothly at all rpm's.
