    have someone scan your car with 'learning view' or log your car.

    also, do you have a short ram?

    probably just somethin that got wet, mine acts like ass if i get on it immediately after a machine carwash. Just drive like a grandma for about 10 minutes after you wash and let the heat from your engine do it's work.
