Got a CE light for my car. It seemed to idle fine and when cold it feels fine. Sometimes when accelerating it vibrates lightly but then it’s fine when the gear changes. I was thinking of replacing the transmission mount for that. I replaced the maf sensor and replaced the I take hoses. I was wondering if the O2 sensors could be it.

Before unloading your wallet to shoot the parts cannon at it, keep these FACTS in mind:

Fuel
Air
Compression
Timing
Spark

If you’re not getting any other codes, rent a fuel pressure tester from an auto parts store and report back here how many PSI your fuel rail has.

Could be a fuel filter which is standard maintenance, or a fuel pump which do wear out from time to time.

Pull a few spark plugs and inspect them - post photos of the tips. Are they white? Black? How’s the gap - is it within spec?
