Hi!
Not sure if anyone will be able to help me figure out why my 2005 5speed Mazda6 is making this fluttering noise and it's pretty loud. It started about a week and a half ago and I had the check engine light on and the codes it threw were P0304, P0850 and that's it. I went to go to work the other morning and started it and she was making this sputtering noise so I again hooked up the OBD and got another code which was P0304 which it said was a cylinder 4 misfire. I then checked the ignition coils and saw that coils 1,2,and 3 were practically drowning in oil and 4 was bone dry but the coil had white stuff on the bottom of it.
So I decided to replace the engine valve cover and replace the spark plugs and the ignition coils. After doing all of that I went to start it and nope it's still making that sputtering when I go to drive it it doesn't have much power it goes up and down and is super sluggish. I checked for a check engine light and nope that's not on at all and still hasn't came on it's not over heating and the fluids are on point.
I don't know much at all about cars and im trying my best to figure this out I will leave a couple of videos with this post to show what it sounds like. If anyone could help me figure out what im dealing with or what I could do to fix this that would be amazing. Thanks to anyone who is willing to take the time to help me and read this!
P.S. Sometimes it's sounds like it might be coming from the bottom of the car near the rear exhaust but then sometimes it sounds like it's right in front of the driver windshield it's not very noticeable when your on the passenger side of the car either.
