Your mechanic sounds like he has NFI what he is doing.
Has he checked the cam and crank sensors , he should of checked for codes first . Sounds like he has ripped you by not fixing it yet after 4 days if he was a good tech he would have fixed it . As I said to tell what is wrong with a car drive it and of you are any good you should know what is wrong with it |

This MAY help you, it was having a similar problem, although it didn't vibrate.. PLEASE get your mechanic to check out the o2 plug earth... it was such a simple fix that was missed. I would of saved around $800 if they were to check this first.

If you were in Brisbane I would loan you a coil pack to test it as I have four coil packs spare here just in case.
I also found the earth connector on the side of the engine had come loose and tightening it made my car run a lot better so grab your socket set or a spanner and check its tight. |
