2023 LE Hybrid - 7k miles - Extreme loss of power & smoothness after ignition coil replacement

 

Car started jerking one day. Took it to Toyota and they replaced one ignition coil. Since then, i have felt immense loss in power and smoothness. I have always drive in eco mode and I was in love with how free/unrestricted/smooth it used to run. Now it feels super sluggish. I got balancing and alignment done just to be sure, still no change. Took it to Toyota, they said no error codes and that everything looks fine (took test drives, also ran their inspection and showed me the report). Getting the fuel system cleanup done although the car is too new to get that done. Any other ideas? I was in love with this car until a few weeks ago, now I hate it 😞

Hi, 

you have a new car why a coil replacement was needed? 
I believe the garage you had been has messed up with your car.
The problem you describe sounds like misfire issue but these could be from many things. 
You need to change the mechanics first, check and find the fault, fix the car. 
Don’t use any additives, don’t replace  parts , just find someone who understand these cars and be able to diagnose the fault. 
Good luck

Ignition coil went out one random day - no idea why/how. The car started making a loud noise (like a sports car exhaust). And the Toyota dealership said it's because an ignition coil failed. Going to go to another Toyota dealership this week.
