Hello.

I have a 2015 1.2 Petrol Automatic qashqai.

A couple of months ago I noticed slight vibrations / rough idle and had the RAC run diagnostics. It came up with misfiring error on Cylinder 2. I had the 4 plugs and ignition coil for cylinder 2 replaced but it hasn't resolved the issue.

I now have intermittent excess cranking when starting the engine (it takes 2 -3 seconds to fire up) about 50% of the time.

And a slight vibration is still noticeable when the engine is running idle.

I've had a brand new battery fitted last week which removed errors relating to auto Start / Stop but I the excess cranking and slight vibration persists.

Any ideas? I've been digging online and my next step to ask the garage to check was the ECU?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
