Someone mentioned that a tail light is out and I do know that the car had LED strips on the headlights and they rewired the back license plate lights for that I believe so is it possible that one light being out could cause this?
I am desperate for a fix, last time I went to the stealership they quoted me $5,000 for new o2 sensors and cats. (I do believe the o2 sensors are out however I have driven$5,000 for with them like this for some time.) The exhaust and cats do not have a leak certified by a secondhand opinion at an exhaust shop so the dealer must have figured "we'll start with the most expensive solution first".
I'm a noob. Thanks for the help.
Grats on your purchase.
sucks when a problem comes up.
$5,000 for cats and o2's is rediculous.
They are defiantly parts replacer not mechanics.
You should ask some of the more experienced members about the rcm or crank position sensor.
How many miles/year??
