Well, I did the brake tap til the oil pressure gage swings and trip reset until 'test' resets, but I've still got the same problem I've had. I hit a wall around 6k, and it doesn't run too smoothly at lower RPMs either.
It seemed like lower RPMS worked well for a few minutes of driving after doing the resets, but now they're sucking as badly as before.
Is it time to bring it to the dealer along with a blank check?

 

Sounds like an ECU malfunction.

 

It threw a P0410 (AIR injection malfunction?) the last time I took it out. I'm really hoping it's not the ECU, as that sounds quite pricey.

 

Well, my car is randomly running ok today. Got it to about 8500 rpm today (it didn't feel quite right past 7500 or so, but not bad,) and the low RPM sluggishness seems to have gone away.
I just hope it stays this way long enough for me to helicoil the rear trailing plug and fix my air injection problem and get the car inspected.

 

it sounds like a misfire!

 

are u under warranty?

 

No, I'm at 68k. I finally got the last plug in right (had to helicoil it,) and replaced the air pump fuse (for my P0410.) Haven't run it since because I'm waiting for the RTV on the helicoil to set. Will see tomorrow how it runs, but I don't think anything will change. Hopefully the new fuse won't blow, as I don't want to spend the money on a new air pump (almost $400.)

 

after i got my new engine, my car has been fine, if i were you guys id take it to the dealership before you go and do anything, simply because if u tell them u did any work they wont warranty it and say that you blew it by trying to fix it, and i guess there are certain parameters inorder for your car to fit the criteria of the warranty which idk what they are but im sure you cant have too many engine mods on it.
