I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on how to solve a frustrating problem with my 2012 Honda Civic where the engine appears to buck/jerk while driving. The problem is very intermittent and therefore my Honda dealer was not able to duplicate the trouble during a test drive. Their full diagnostic tests did not reveal anything.
The problem has been going on since late 2017, sometimes disappearing for a month or so and then reappearing again. I can’t understand if this was a problem with the fuel injectors or timing belt why would it be so intermittent? What else could cause bucking & jerking of the engine? I did have the plugs replaced just to make certain they were not the cause. Running up the engine while stopped does not show any signs of missing.
Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated.
