ok so i took my car to the dealership, and on my way i had various throttle problems, meanings im on the gas and the car isnt.. also i had it floored in third gear, and it took forever to hit 60 mph, and wouldnt go faster than that.
but i digress, point is... i got a call from the shop, after a very long nap. and i somehow fried my cat! at some point i had a misfire and the car went into limp mode?
also for those who care, my car was EGGED, again. and now i have even more scratches in my paint. this is the third time. im assuming by some high schooler kid with a gold v6 camaro.
