ok here are a list of problems the my msp has...
first though some background-
82,833k miles
all stock besides injen CAI
i bought it early july with 80,627 miles
got the oil changed when i got it
ok the list:
1. broken stock head unit- when i got the car it worked prefectly fine and its slowy got to the point where it doesnt work at all.
2. check engine light- code p0171 (the too lean/rich one) this code has been going on and off for a month now. it will be on for like 3-4 days then magically turn off for like 2 days.... then on again.
3. horrible squeak from a belt- only happens for like 5-15 seconds. it only happens about 1 out of every 5 times i back out of the driveway. it is the LOUDEST most horrible sound in the world. haha
4. jerking- at wot usually 3rd gear when i get into boost the car kinda jerks like im tapping the break rapidly. also it has some hesistation like 3 out of every 5 times wot.
5. bad idol- every time i sit it in neutral like at a stop light or something of that sort for like more than 1 minute... the rpms will dip to the point where it will almost die then quickly rise back up to normal, it does it like 4-5 times then just goes back up and stays normal.
6. wheel squeaks- the left front wheel will have a squeak when i turn right. or travel very slow like 1mph. but its getting increasingly worse day to day.
7. squeaky brakes- breaks are bad and squeaky.
ok so my questions are...
-what should i get fixed first? How should i go about doing that (whether to try to do it myself or take it to the dealer or something)?
- and please explain to me what are the causes of some of the problems. (especailly the idol and jerking/hesisitation)
thanks guys i appreciate the help!
