Help please!!!
2004 black Mazda rx8 .. new engine was put in a year ago to replace the messed up 04 one.
The past couple weeks my car has been struggling to start every now and then, and when it does it would rev' the RPMs to 4,000 by itself. Also, it would not come out of park and finally after 3 or 4 mins. of trying it would finally come out. The other day the tire pressure light came on, and when I checked my tires, two were right below 30 and two was right above 30 PSI. It finally went off yesterday. This morning, my car really struggled to start, and when it did the tire pressure light came on and stay on, as did the TCS/DSC light. The DSC OFF light also came on, but once I put the car in drive it went off. Has anyone else had this happen to them? And I would call or take it to the Mazda place, but the one closest to me went out of business, and I've asked my parents to help me but they won't.

Your idle issue has nothing to do with your TPMS light or your DSC issue. How many miles do you have on your 04 and what is the most recent maintenance you have done?
