i am new to owning my 8 and when i got it i swear that around 6k rpm the engine would start to pull harder , just recently i noticed that it dosent feel like it does anymore the engine seams to run ok . but i am wondering if perhaps it might be a symptom of whats to come . i spent some time searching but couldnt find anything that would help .

 

Please give us some more info on your car,miles,service done,parts replaced,problems, anything you can give us.

 

Well i just got it about a month ago its an 04 with 40k miles mt

 

do you know if recalls were performed?

suggestions for you:
check the spark plugs. (left front left of car, insert jack stand, take off wheel, straigh ahead are the plugs)
If necessary, replace accordingly
Check the ignition coils. http://www.finishlineperformance.com...16-07-1793.pdf

Check the air filter, make sure it's not all clogged up.

Any other mods on the car?

 

no mods that i am aware of
and there are no open recalls on it

 

Could be your butt dyno is off.

Or maybe the cat.

 

do you feel a lack of power? If so, might be a clogged catalytic

 

sometimes the power can be a bit finicky, like if you drive slow all the time then suddenly drive it hard, it won't feel that fast. But if you had been flogging the car the previous day, then the next morning car feels really strong. That's how it's been in my experience. So I drive my car hard all the time

 

Read the post again.

He's not saying that.

 

I think your just getting used to the car that's all. As long as everything is working I wouldn't trip. Search and read all you can, this car has to be babied as far a maintenence, but while driving you need to smack it around a bit and it will reward you.

 

thanks for all your comments i am gonna change the plugs and air filter
and i think you are right bose i am probly just getting used to it

 

Pull the ROOM fuse and reinstall and drive.
