To fix a cylinder misfire problem, replaced passenger side port injectors and found that the actual problem was loose ignition coil that Toyota service was responsible for when they replaced the spark plugs. Also changed oil, and installed new battery. My 2014 FR-S is still running fine with JRSC

Oh! and I drove to work and I still love it.

Pushed mine back in the garage about a foot to get the trash cans out. I did not crash it - by pushing it back into the garage door.

My son has started driving and is learning to shift a manual transmission. His friends are also learning to drive manuals.

They did not crash.

However, he had an incident where he drove my daily driver into a pothole. As a result, we needed two new tires, two new wheels, and an alignment. So, he did crash in a way.

That must have been one hell-of-a pothole!
