  • hmm problem?

    If my cars running and im stopped at a light, I can hear a sudden pause in the exhaust tone that maybe happens every 3 seconds or so... like I can hear the exhaust flowing out (straight pipes for my car) and it sometimes pauses and Ill notice that the Oil gauge fluctuates a little bit on the dash... any idea what this may be?

        Bad ground maybe? Did this same thing in my 3rd gen. Cept it made all gauges move, along with dim head lights. And I did hear a dif exhaust note. Only for a moment though, just like yours. This is only a guess of course but worth checking into if your car is running fine.

          the car seems to be running fine except for the fact that i feel like its bogged down... like i remmeber when I had 2 coils that were busted i could notice a huge difference, this time its not as severe but it feels like my cars a BIT slower than it should be? i dunno

            Doesnt seem like a ground problem now... I say Seafoam it first. Then go for coils... SF is much cheaper than a coil. GL
