What is the exact code you're getting? I had an issue with my O2 sensor & cat on my 2011 Liberty, that, when cleared, would reappear after 30-60 miles. Ended up having a broken driver-side catalytic converter and since replacing that + the O2 sensors, its been perfect since. During this time, I had 20-30% WORSE fuel economy. Other than the rough idle, are you experiencing any below average fuel economy? How about slow acceleration / need to put your foot down a bit more when accelerating?
