So, a few weeks ago I had the dealer change my secondary sutter valve. My car would hesitate as I let into the aceleration/ CEL was on. Dealer said that I would need to change my SSV. Cool, i have an extra $500 to spare since I paid off my car. I get my car back from the dealer and less than a week later my CEL is back on and it's having a hard time starting / ruff idle/ power loss / what I thought was classic ignition coils ready to bite the big one! Yay! Needless to say I have been reading how to change my coils/ spark plugs/ wires here on the boards. And I was like "I can ******* do that!". In fact I love working on my 8! Before changing the aforementioned, all I have done to my 8 was change the oil, replace the parking, and door lights. I was super stoked to be working on my motor with the aide of my friends who know how to work on cars better than I. So as i start to remove the plastic protective cover to access the spark plugs I see this



sooooo i guess I should have changed my spark plugs/ wires sooner! the stock wires fall off after a while! and now I have an extra pair of coils too cuz the ones that were in there were still good. my friend checked them at his Diesel mechanics class.



but now my 8 has this whine (for lack of a better word). I was hopping to find out was it is from all the post on the "whine" but that was wishful thinking. Runs great tho!
