Good Afternoon,

I'm looking for a little help on my 2013 Scion FRS - 80350Miles

This weekend we did a little dirt road drifting, nothing hard really but enough to get some dust in the engine bay. The next day when I was driving the Slip Light came on and stayed on and the next time I started the car the Check Engine light came out as well.

We took it to Orielys and had them pull the codes, unfortunately, he told me I didn't need to know what they were cause they were all BS even though I asked for them. He erased all 10 Codes that came up.

Trying to leave the parking lot the car died so we pushed it back and looked under the hood and realized the air filter was disgusting and immediately bought a new one. Everything was fine until we were heading back to the cities and got hit by a rainstorm. Then the ABS, and Cruise control turned orange and the CEL light came on shortly after that.

We made it home no problem and took a peek at the car and didn't find anything out of the ordinary, we took it to the dealer for them to tell us a bunch of BS about having a warranty for this issue then not and I got frustrated with them.

So I purchased an OBD2 Device and ran the codes myself. The first time we got P1449. C1201 and U0155 once as well and looked for a leak in the vacuum line which was not found (Which was suggested by people with similar problems.). The P1449 stayed consistent at the same time, my hubby decided to delete the sound maker and put on a Perrin Main intake line I will add a picture of the engine bay.

After that, the car seemed like it was running great and no lights. But This morning when I was driving to work, I clutched doing 65 to shift from 5th to 6th and it died. Right there just died, so I just turned the ignition and hit the gas to keep rolling, the car proceeded to do this 3 more times.

I got the reader at lunch and ran the scan again this time getting U0073 and P1604. We took it for a test drive and it didn't die and I didn't clear any codes.

Any Advice?

My husband is suspicious that we got the Spark plugs immensely dirty and they are not firing correctly.
There could possibly still be a leak in the line?
Would the Evaporator canister cause this?
Or did removing the sound maker irritate my car?

I don't know what to do but I cannot afford to take it into a shop.

I feel fairly confident I can replace the spark plugs.
I think I can replace the evap canister

Has anyone had these same issues and codes?
