you running a oiled filter on a CAI or shortram intake? cause if you do, its a good bet that it contaminated the MAF and that is the cause of a stutter.


but brake problems should be addressed as soon as possible....not after 5k miles. most of the time, that shows lack of concern on the owners part and it will be reflected in the service order/logs.

not being a dick or anything, but i have worked in enough shops and run enough to know that.

wherever you want to. Too many people belive the "you must bring the car to this dealership for oil changes or we will void your warranty" I had a cavalier Hyundai customer tell me that today when his warranty expired.

So long as you keep the reciepts from the oil change, you're fine to do it anywhere.
