Just take it on the autobahn, floor it and see if it stops acting up. lol j/k Its going to be a sensor for sure causing this problem. Could be one of your o2 sensors.

took it to the dealership and they told me that cylinder #2 was misfiring they cleared the code but it came back on then I took it back and it said the same thing but this time he looked at all the sensors it says that the two sensors on the back of the motor that make the motor pull for timing weren't reading he told me it could be because i put bad gas in my car and to run 100 oct in it to see if that does the trick before i buy the sensors those damn things are 100 euros a pop and i need to one for the right side and one for the left ....... has any one else had this problem?

I bet its your O2 sensors. They are throwing a CEL because they are reading much higher emission levels.

Will cause the car to run like crap, especially under WOT when you have MORE gas.

You need to use the CEL fix by spacing out the o2 sensors.

how long ago did you do the spark plugs?

Could be a bad ignition coil for that, or the plug gap could be way off.
