new coil pack?
Recently my car will randomly run really rough and feel like its about to stall, and then be fine 5 seconds later. This gave me a CEL and the VSA light and triangle. The VSA and triangle light went away on their own but the CEL stayed. I looked on Acurazine and saw that it was likely the EGR port needing cleaning. I figured i should take it to get the Engine light code to make sure it was the P0401 code for the EGR. The code ended up being a P0301 (cylinder 1 misfire). The guy said the coil pack may be bad so i went to switch two of the coils to see if the misfire code came back in a different cylinder. As i was unscrewing the cylinder 1 pack, the screw didn't seem very tight and then when i pulled the pack out it looked like this:

So yeah I definitely need a new one. Anyone know how it got like that? Or where i can get a good new one?

thats members helping members!!
they get loose or damaged when plugs changed before you got it
after coil swap or replacement you MUST reset the ecu by pulling the clock fuse for a minute, located passenger end of dash
new coils 50 bucks each at dealer or aftermarket local parts store,,give both a call
should do egr cleaning inside of intake manifold soon,,due every 75kmiles
