alright so i took my car for a few various problems..and i have a warranty on my engine which says it cant be modified in any way etc. so i put the stock intake back on..so my mechanic fixes the car and everything...but it's been bucking like hell when i let off the gas (usually under 2.3k rpms)...i put my CAI back on and everything b/c i thought it was bucking from puttin the stock intake on but it kept bucking...should i try resetting the ECU?..he also said 3 outta 5 of the wires going to my 02 sensor were ripped so he's replacing that..could that have nething to do w/ it?....thanks

wait, its bucking after you let off the gas??? are your motor mounts in good shape?

yes it could, what do you think?

well it shuts off extremely hard and thats another 1 of the things hes looking at...i just found it weird that i NEVER had a problem with the bucking before i took it 2 him

^^^^what are you talking about? lol

anybody have a diff. opinion than the motor mounts?....i hardly get any responses on this site anymore :(

i was under the assumption that the o2 sensors only have 4 wires....at least mine do and i have replaced both so..

yea i guess its 4 i dunno he told me a few days ago along w/ like 3-4 other things so i didnt remember everything completely..and yea my next attempt is gonna be at reseting the ECU so im gonna go try that now...thanks for everything guys

I would try and reset the ECU, just pull the negative battery terminal for like 20 minutes. It can't hurt anything.

hey wuz up? this all comes down to how the engine is bucking..... have a friend stand outside the car looking at the exhuast pipe and put into gear either forward or revs. and have them tell you if your exhaust moves more then normal, if it does move a lil more then normal check your front motor mount but for good reasurence just check them all.if that's your problem the mount can run you about $35 - $55 each depending which one you need hit me up to my email if you need them or more info i'll hook you up k? lostsoulsfamily@aol.com

if some of the wires on cut on the o2 sensor , no shit that whats wrong.

he calls himself a mechanic? thats a 35 dollar part. he should have changed it immediately.

EDIT: also you sound very concerned with a tilte like "Should i reset my ECU?......read plz"

It not gonna hurt your car. :shrug

believe me i know he sucks..the only reason i gave it 2 him this time was b/c i thought somethin would be covered under the warranty (theres a few other things wrong)...the thing im pissed off at is that i had no problems before i gave it 2 him to change my radiator and other things (that WERE covered under warranty)..then all of a sudden it bucks and runs like shit..im tempted to buy a dam camera and tape him w/o him knowing lol

Where the hell did you come from? The engine will not buck because of broken motor mounts, you idiot. You can replace them all with solid steel and it will run just fine. Furthermore, if the mounts were blown, you could tell from, get this, looking at the mounts and watching the engine move in the bay. Go away, please.
