Check Engine Light Flashing... Car driving rough.. spuddering
Help, My 01 CL-S just started choking on the way back to work from lunch. Its driving rough and the Check Engine Light came on. MY CL-S has no upgrades. I am thinking that maybe there is some gunk in the fuel filter or fuel pump? Not sure... I filled up this morning, but used the usual Shell Premium. Any help will be great. I am going to check some of the other post on rough Idles......

Sorry to tell you this boss but sounds like the same thing that was happening to my 2001 CL-S last 2 times my tranny went.. Are any other lights like the VSA light or anything else light up? How many miles are on your car?
Is it the original tranny?

I have 211K on my car, my original tranny was replaced at 90K under the recall/warranty. The tranny didn't come to mind because its shifting fine. It feels like the car is having a hard time breathing if that makes any sense. No other lights are coming on.. the check engine light is just periodically flashing on and off. In park, i reved it some thinking it was something lodged in the fuel filter or something, if it was it didn't budge... This stinks because I was planning to drive it to New York and Canada for New Years.... unless i figure it out she will be sitting in the garage. Better yet I might put her ass outside in the cold for punishment tonight.....

Ok.. well I took her took her to advanced auto last night for the codes... I received the cylinder misfire error for all of 6. So I figure i would go ahead and change all of the plugs ...... It took me about 35 min the one on the rear left is a beast.. anyway I am still getting the flashing check engine light. The vibrations are not as bad, worse in 1st and 2nd gear around 2500.... and then over sixty when I give it any gas to accelerate, when I left off the gas she is fine..... any thoughts?
