Hey fellas
My car has been nothing but smooth and awesome until yesterday
My check engine light came on, which it never has, and a short time later i started getting a stutter/missfire when at a cruising speed
The car seems to pull smlooth under any type of load or accelleration. Its when i stay at a steady speed it breaks up and missfires
If i get off the throttle for a sedond and then accellerate it will smoothen out but as soon as im not accellerating or under any type of boost it breaks up bad
Before the issue started, my head unit turned on and off a few times while driving and turns out the negative terminal was loose. All my grounds wires are attached to the negative post so i thought that would fix the problem. The car was still breaking up and doing the same thing on the way to work today
Local shop tried to scan the car last night to check the ecu code but due to it being from japan their scanner didnt pick anything up
Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance
