Check your MAF sensor. Might be dirty.

wtf, scared i'll have to replace a cat converter soon. i,ve put fresh oem plugs, new ignition coils, now what? i have to run premium in me car

Did you perhaps not put shims/brake grease on the back of the pads?

Could also be a good idea to properly clean the inside of the rotor/drum on the rear to get rid of the dust and such, as that is usually what causes squealing in drums/rotor internals

Yes, I have
pls no

How about the spark plugs?

friend had the same issue on his R32 except it persisted. He changed his coilpack and it fixed it kek

you don't NEED a catalytic converter

Depends where you live.

If it is fuel injected one try the coolant temperature sensor.
Sorry if I am wrong.

gasoline will evaporate with no cap

I get a CEL for my dying cat converter every now and then, it's probably nothing if the engine runs fine

Are... Are you fucking your car user?

Find a friend with a balancing machine, maybe you lost a weight

Jesus christ man have you ever heard of a head gasket

Wheel balance, warped rotors
Top off your oil you mongoloid
Use antiseize on the back of your pads and shims, also put moly grease on the slide pins if it wasn't included with the pads.
Mine did that on cylinder 4 multiple times except it wasn't actually misfiring, putting a grounding kit on it fixed it.
Calipers are easy af to change bro, just takes a little longer to bleed than normal

I was a poor teenager.
Now I am a slightly less poor 19 year old with a slightly newer forester that I am treating nicer.
Happy?

I'm even poorer and I drive a 1987 Citroën AX
Such is life in Serbia.

thats not my concern, no one in my city has parts for my car

No, but she fucks me at every given opportunity. Left me limping to work this morning... the rear diff went ka-boom and I had to drive 8 miles in 4hi but only driving the front wheels.

Also she recently began leaking fuel from the line somewhere so I lose fuel pressure on the highway.

New Ferds have no cap. Just a flappy seal-y thing.

This is my Corolla, straight out of the factory it has liked spending oil.

I have a feeling this thing is going to nickel and dime me to death, but I don't really mind because so far its all been minor, simple shit. and it gives me an excuse to work on it, I guess.

its also almost completely rust free and a two door, so there's that.
