And it's not the gas cap being loose. I'm scared.

 

Pull the code...then we can help.

yeah, sounds like you got gremlins in your pcv system and your muffler bearings are about to fail.






get the codes scanned and report back. its prolly not that big of a deal if you are still driving the car.

 

Where can I go to get the codes pulled other then the dealership?

 

Auto parts store, AutoZone etc. should have an ODBII scanner they can hook-up and pull the codes for you, noting the code number is more important than the description they will give you. There is also a procedure somewhere on this forum where you can pull them yourself using the accelerator, and ignition switch in a specific sequence. Then you count the number of flashes of the light (I don't like it, so 80's)

 

For my previous coupe when i first pulled the car out of the shop after getting headers, intake, cats, exhaust, ecu flash it was kind of shaking and the RPM 's were dropping a lot then the service engine soon light came on.. it got so bad to the point were when i was taking it to the mechanic the next day everytime i came to the lights it would turn off then it wouldint stay started up unless i kept my foot on the gas so i had to pop it into drive ( my older one was a auto the one i have now is 6mt )... while holding the gas... i was freaked out as to what was wrong...

mechanic walked outside, opened the hood took a quick look then grab a screw driver tightened the clamp that keeps the intake connected.. started it up and was good to go ....

Although for sure its something different for you.

 

Sweet found a place to pull codes for me for $30. The dealership wanted $90. I'm going to go tighten my intake just incase. Thanks.

 

soooooo.....what codes were in it?

 

In for codes.
