What causes the Kia Ceed to experience engine misfires?

My Kia Ceed occasionally experiences misfires in the engine. What could be the cause of this issue?

Misfires in the engine can be caused by a variety of factors such as faulty spark plugs, a clogged fuel filter, or a damaged ignition coil. It is important to have a mechanic diagnose the issue to determine the root cause.

Another common cause of engine misfires in the Kia Ceed is a dirty mass airflow sensor. This can lead to an improper air/fuel mixture and cause the engine to run rough. Regularly cleaning or replacing the sensor can help prevent this issue.

If your Kia Ceed has high mileage, worn out piston rings could also be the culprit behind the misfires. This can lead to a loss of compression and uneven combustion. Consider having a compression test done to check the condition of your engine.
