I'm thinking this has something to do with the cam sensor or something. I've read new ecu is often the fix.

Why now!?

I've also seen this happen with a vacumn leak. Maybe check the lines and hope it's the easy fix?

That happened to me awhile ago, before the SC. Take it to the dealership, they might just be able to reflash it and call it a day, that's all they had to do with mine. if a new ECU is required, its a warranty thing so they'll just order one and keep your car until it comes in.

NM I found this not sure its right but I think it is:
Bolt Pattern: 5/114.3 (They seem to be the Multi Design as they have 10 holes per spacer)
Center Bore: 67.1
Bolt/Stud: Stud
Thread Type: 12x1.5
Width: 15mm
That center bore is too big for our car isnt it. It will work but wont it lose the hubcentric part? Lugs should center them mostly though. Mostly.

Thats why I was skeptical of posting these do not have any studs or threaded holes but thats all the information I could find.

One of my friends just told me about this place in Tucson that will make any customer spacer or adapter you need:

That's easy! Check out Windows and Wheels auto detailing. If you want to see how they work, I posted a review of my car getting worked on in the detailing section. Bunch of the guys here have done it from them. His cell is 4802016270. Enjoy

Thank you, if you dont mind me asking, how much did it cost you so i know a ball park range. Prices on opti coat seem to change a great deal on location. Seen them from 275 to 1500. I left a message so i couldnt ask

I for one didn't get opti coat. I got CQuartz Finest on since it makes it very glossy on dark colored cars. In the end it truly depends on your paint condition. I had a 3 step polish and the finest is 150 bucks more at that time so it would cost $800 for my car. I was talking to them a couple days ago about opti coat and the pro version price went up because of a warranty too. If your car would only need a 1 step polish it would cost 500 to 600 but it really comes down to the full inspection what your car will need.

Very good point that people don't take into consideration. In order to get Opti-Coat you need to have your paint in the best condition which might go through multiple stage paint correction. Not to step on toes but another option would be Pit Stop Detailing. Good group of guys and they know me quite well. They also got rid of the traditional "Opti-Coat" and are using a product called G-Techniq. I've seen the stuff up close on some high end cars and its pretty cool. Again not sure how much it is tho. Just an option.

Gtechniq evo v2 are good if you want to look into it but I'm not sure if they have the pro version v2 out. It would be competitive pricing but not sure how it would compare to opticoat
