My car goes into a funky modes like every 6 months when I am hard on the gas, ac running, then stop suddenly..its start vibrating like the fuel and timing are off, but unlike you mine stops after 3K rpm...

hmmm

I just cut the car off and back on then it stops...I think the dang ECU's are so smart, they fool themselves sometimes....lol.

Hahaha, well, my test pipes go back on tomorrow, so we'll see what the deal is. I'm getting paranoid. Heard a noise on my way home today, sounded like a clunking coming from my rear wheel
