My guess would be a leaking injector seal, that would be my starting point. 2021 L405 Vogue D300

That’s an odd one, it’s almost like it’s building a little then losing boost, could be a sticky wastegate actuator, as you can power through it I would suspect not fuelling, something on the air and turbo side. Not sure where the turbos are on the V6 and I know it’s tight in the engine bay but given the age and relatively low mileage a suspect something somewhere is leaking slightly or sticking slightly, something probably wants freeing up or tightening up…. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Is it under warranty ? If so find one of the better dealers and let them take a look... |

I thought turbo as well due to that video, but why is it doing it at idle and turbo failure should not cause the car to shudder...hence why I thought it may be a fuelling issue. I have heard injector chuffing before on a Focus diesel, best to get it checked out as it can damage an engine over time.

To infrequent to be an injector, at 800 rpm an injector would chirp twice a second on a v6. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜
