Okay guys. The car has been sitting for a while now and it just feels like crap everytime I get on the gas...it seems worse than when it was stock!!! I have an exhaust leak (small) and that is the only thing I think that could be causing the power loss. Maybe my clutch is just totally dead now? Any ideas? I think an LT4 KM would be very helpful with any false knock problems I have. Could the fact that I don't have my MAF screen in there cause the problems, even though I have a ram air set-up?

Second....

The car is idling @ 2000RPM!!!!! and every time I floor it, the engine light goes on...Matt suggested that it was the idle control valve or somthing. Shaun, do you still have that used one forsale?

Third and most annoying...
is that everytime I go over a bump or accelerate hard, the INTERIOR LIGHTS FLASH!!! I can live with this because they only stay on for a spilt second, but the last bump I hit, they stayed on!!! They wouldn't turn off, so I took the bulbs out of the centre light and the 2 in the mirror. Any ideas? Is this a problem that relates to my accident and therefore the bodyshop should take care of it? (my car sat for a month right after the repairs and I haven't driven it since)

ps= thanks for reading my rant of annoyance

 

no idea

check your tps sensor. Mine did the same thing. I fixed mine by backing off the idle control screw(?) on my bbk TB. That way I didn't ahve to replace the TPS

check those pins in the doors that get pushed in everytime you shut the door. It may have pooped out after the repairs. Also check the rear hatch. I f the hatch has play in it the lights will come on.

 

The last point you made is a good one...I didn't think of that.

Thats why I like this board Saves me money....that will offset the amount that it causes me to spend on mods
