Maybe he tried to Vtech too hard but he was out of Vtech... Goes to show you, you HAVE to remember to pickup those refill cans any time you fill up gas, especially if you drive the car hard a lot.

It has been been rattling and Bogging at hight rpm lately sooo i decided to bring it in. on the way there at 4000rpm on a down shift...

I take good care of my car and dont abuse it... to much

If you claim not to abuse your car, may I ask why you were going into vtec when you already had engine problems? Especially while you were on your way to the dealer.
