Yesterday i was going down reid hwy and hit a prob when the engine light came on. when i stoped it was idling strange i stop the motor and poped the hood nothing seem to look out of place. once i started the car again it was all back to how it sounds every day ...

should i get some one to have a look at the car

Or just wait to its next service?

did it start sounding like a wrx? if so its a coilpack..i went through it 3 times with my girl b4 putting in splitfires

sounding like a wrx could also be a dead sparkplug giving you 5 cylinders. It sounds cool but yer it isnt :)

check your plugs as well ron

it could be many things man...rings/coil packs/spark plugs...when mine did it....it was because i got water into the spark plug area and it couldn't fire properly but yeh haha just check out the coil/spark plugs area :) hope that helps ron

I had a brand new impreza do that to me before- turned it around to dealership(where i worked) grabbed another car. Service guys took it for a thrash and somehow that solved the problem...... don't blame me if you blow something - it just happened to work in this instance - they didn't have much of clue what it was either.
