So, I purchased the car about....6 months ago? I immediately noticed that it had a random misfire throughout acceleration, mainly in 2nd. I replaced the plugs and coils (needed to be done anyway), and it was phenomenally better.
However, I'm still getting a slight bog in 2nd under heavy load. If I'm driving normally, no issues whatsoever. But, when I pin the throttle (trying to show off), around the mid point of the tachometer, the motor bogs down a bit before unleashing the full power. And it ONLY seems to happen in 2nd gear.
Anyone have similar issues? Any ideas on what may need to be replaced? I work at a shop, and there are no codes coming up, and nothing on the scan tool that would indicate a problem (had my master tech ride with me and watch the scanner for irregularities), so I'm at a dead end.
I'd love to get this baby running just right, so I can really enjoy her. Any help would be appreciated!:help:
