I would appreciate any help you could give me regarding my Ibiza 2010 engine 2.0 Blitz version. When the engine is working and I accelerate, either changing from 2nd to 3rd or from 3rd to 4th gears, the EPC indicator turns on and the engine loses power. Even yesterday, the Check was turned on for a long time and then disappeared. The car has already been tuned and the injectors cleaned, but the problem persists. Thank you very much for your help in advance.

I own an Ibiza Coupe FR 2013 and, according to the manual, when the Check indicator blinks it is warning you of a possible failure in the oxygen or lambda sensor and, when it remains turned on, the failure is already there.
It is quite probable that it is the fuel that is causing your problem. This happened to me a few days ago and, when I decided to change the fuel to Premium, the failure disappeared and it now accelerates like it used to. I recommend you to try changing it to see what happens in your case.

CommentPower loss and jerks
Seat Ibiza 2011 70000 miles
Occasionally, it occurs to me that my Ibiza loses power and jerks when driving. I've found out that, if I leave the key one more second when starting the car, these failures do not take place. However, if I forget to do it or I am hurried and need to start it fast, the jerks and power loss return. Does anyone know what might be happening?

The same is happening to me right at this moment and a cousin of mine told me that, in his case, after changing the pump without a positive result, he was able to solve the problem by replacing one coil that was damaged.
I have the same failure with my Ibiza 2011 and I am almost sure it is a manufacturing problem.

My car jerks and the scanner indicates a failure in cylinders 1 and 3 as well as a poor combustion. The vehicle is working properly and it suddenly fails, as if it were a problem with a wire. But they are new, just like the coil. The injectors have been cleaned and the fuel pump replaced but the sensor keeps providing the same errors.
